  1. Even if CNG is replacing CryptoAPI there is still new stuff, well
  2. wrappers, being added. This is important, for Windows users, since CNG
  3. is only available in Windows Vista (and later OS).
  4. Since Mono does not support CryptoAPI (even on Windows) all the classes
  5. with a CryptoServiceProvider suffix are wrappers around managed
  6. implementations of the same cryptographic algorithm.
  7. New CSP crypto classes Wrapper around
  8. ---------------------- --------------
  9. AesCryptoServiceProvider RijndaelManaged [1]
  10. SHA256CryptoServiceProvider SHA256Managed [mscorlib]
  11. SHA384CryptoServiceProvider SHA384Managed [mscorlib]
  12. SHA512CryptoServiceProvider SHA512Managed [mscorlib]
  13. [1] Not a true wrapper but a copy of the source. This is required
  14. since AesManaged is available in Silverlight 2.0 (and RijndaelManaged
  15. is not available in mscorlib).
