Safe Rust bindings to Microsoft Windows Cryptography API : Next Generation (CNG)
CNG are cryptographic primitives and utilities provided by the operating system and/or hardware. It is available since Windows Vista and replaces the now deprecated CryptoAPI.
The primitives do not depend on OpenSSL or other libraries of the sort, they are provided by Microsoft and/or by the hardware manufacturer. They are the primitives used in kernel space programs. Therefore, if you are using Microsoft Windows, you already accepted to trust these primitives.
- Validated by FIPS 140-2 and part of the Target of Evaluation for the Windows Common Criteria certification
- Full support for NSA Suite B algorithms
- Kernel support (not through the Rust bindings)
- Auditing in the key storage provider (KSP)
- Thread safe
- Symmetric encryption
- Supported algorithms: AES, DES, DES-X, RC2, 3DES, 3DES-112.
- Supported chaining modes: ECB, CBC, CFB.
- Hash functions
- Supported algorithms: SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, SHA-512, MD2, MD4, MD5.
