Hi, i am trying to encrypt data using AES algoritm
I am using the CryptDeriveKey API with CALG_AES_128.But it returns
false.
last error specifies "Invalid Algorithm specified".
It works fine for CALG_DES.but failing for CALG_AES.
I am working on windows xp platform.

Is AES is not supported om win32???

It seems only available on OS >= Vista

Hi Mahish:

I'd hate to change crypto libraries after getting LibTomCrypt
to work.

If you need crypto on an OS earlier than Vista, there are
several libraries out there.

Hi Larry,
I have already used once fips validated library and i am able to do
the task.
But i am more interested to know whether it is possible without using
any 3rd party library.
Windows itself support des and triple des.
i just want to know whether aes is supported on OS lbelow vista. If
yes then how ??
