Contains classes that enable you to create cryptographic keys, to hash and sign content, create message authentication codes, and to encrypt or decrypt data.

Classes

AsymmetricAlgorithmNames AsymmetricAlgorithmNames AsymmetricAlgorithmNames AsymmetricAlgorithmNames	Contains static properties that enable you to retrieve algorithm names that can be used in the OpenAlgorithm method of the AsymmetricKeyAlgorithmProvider class.
AsymmetricKeyAlgorithmProvider AsymmetricKeyAlgorithmProvider AsymmetricKeyAlgorithmProvider AsymmetricKeyAlgorithmProvider	Represents a provider of asymmetric (public) key algorithms. For more information, see Cryptographic keys.
CryptographicEngine CryptographicEngine CryptographicEngine CryptographicEngine	Encrypts, decrypts, and signs content, and verifies digital signatures.
CryptographicHash CryptographicHash CryptographicHash CryptographicHash	Represents a reusable hashing object and contains the result of a hashing operation.
CryptographicKey CryptographicKey CryptographicKey CryptographicKey	Represents a symmetric key or an asymmetric key pair.
EccCurveNames EccCurveNames EccCurveNames EccCurveNames	Contains static properties that enable you to retrieve supported elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) algorithm names.
EncryptedAndAuthenticatedData EncryptedAndAuthenticatedData EncryptedAndAuthenticatedData EncryptedAndAuthenticatedData	Contains data that can be retrieved from encrypted and authenticated data. Authenticated encryption algorithms are opened by using the SymmetricKeyAlgorithmProvider class.
HashAlgorithmNames HashAlgorithmNames HashAlgorithmNames HashAlgorithmNames	Contains static properties that enable you to retrieve algorithm names that can be used in the OpenAlgorithm method of the HashAlgorithmProvider class.
HashAlgorithmProvider HashAlgorithmProvider HashAlgorithmProvider HashAlgorithmProvider	Represents a cryptographic hash provider. For more information about hashes, see MACs, hashes, and signatures.
