X509ProviderType enumeration (certenroll.h)

  • Article

The X509ProviderType enumeration specifies the type of cryptographic provider. Providers implement cryptographic standards and algorithms in software and hardware. This enumeration is used by the ICspInformation and IX509PrivateKey interfaces.

Syntax

typedef enum X509ProviderType {
  XCN_PROV_NONE = 0,
  XCN_PROV_RSA_FULL = 1,
  XCN_PROV_RSA_SIG = 2,
  XCN_PROV_DSS = 3,
  XCN_PROV_FORTEZZA = 4,
  XCN_PROV_MS_EXCHANGE = 5,
  XCN_PROV_SSL = 6,
  XCN_PROV_RSA_SCHANNEL = 12,
  XCN_PROV_DSS_DH = 13,
  XCN_PROV_EC_ECDSA_SIG = 14,
  XCN_PROV_EC_ECNRA_SIG = 15,
  XCN_PROV_EC_ECDSA_FULL = 16,
  XCN_PROV_EC_ECNRA_FULL = 17,
  XCN_PROV_DH_SCHANNEL = 18,
  XCN_PROV_SPYRUS_LYNKS = 20,
  XCN_PROV_RNG = 21,
  XCN_PROV_INTEL_SEC = 22,
  XCN_PROV_REPLACE_OWF = 23,
  XCN_PROV_RSA_AES = 24
} ;
