memModuleDescription The Cryptographic Primitives Library (BCRYPTPRIMITIVES.DLL) provides cryptographic services to Windows components and applications. It includes cryptographic algorithms in an easy-to-use cryptographic module via the Cryptography Next Generation (CNG) API. It can be dynamically linked into applications for the use of general-purpose FIPS 140-2 validated cryptography.
This cryptographic module also maintains FIPS 140-2 validation compliance (according to FIPS 140-2 PUB Implementation Guidance G.5) on Microsoft Windows 8, Microsoft Windows 8 Pro, and Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Datacenter.
