Members

Member	Description
Dss	A provider type that, like RsqSig, only supports hashes and digital signatures. Dss specifies the Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) signature algorithm.
Fortezza	A provider type that contains a set of cryptographic protocols and algorithms owned by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
MicrosoftExchange	A provider type designed for the cryptographic needs of the Microsoft Exchange mail application and other applications compatible with Microsoft Mail.
None	No cryptographic provider type specified.
RsaFull	The full RSA provider type, which supports both digital signatures and data encryption. Considered a general purpose cryptographic services provider. The RSA public-key algorithm is used for all public-key operations.
RsqSig	A subset of the RsaFull provider type, which supports only those functions and algorithms required for hashes and digital signatures.
Ssl	A provider type that supports the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol.
SttAcq	Secure transaction technology provider acquirer.
SttBrnd	Secure transaction technology provider brand.
SttIss	Secure transaction technology provider issuer.
SttMer	Secure transaction technology provider enterprise.
SttRoot	Secure transaction technology provider root.
