I just commited a first version of Mono.Security.Win32 assembly in CVS. As it's name indicates this assembly is for Win32 only. It's goal is to permit the use of CryptoAPI under Windows for enhanced compatibility (like keypair persistance) and performance (like using a crypto accelerator - HSM). A more complete description is available at http://www.go-mono.org/crypto.html.
Just a remainder: This assembly is NOT meant to be linked directly with any application. It's usage should be transparent to application that use (directly or not) the CryptoConfig class to create the cryptographic algorithms. So far the following CryptoAPI algorithm are supported: - random number generator (selectable using CspParameters); - hash algorithms (MD2, MD4, MD5 and SHA1); Symmetric and asymmetric algorithms will be added later.
