dpapi.h header
This header is used by Security and Identity. For more information, see:
dpapi.h contains the following programming interfaces:
Functions
| CryptProtectData Performs encryption on the data in a DATA_BLOB structure. |
| CryptProtectMemory encrypts memory to prevent others from viewing sensitive information in your process. |
| CryptUnprotectData Decrypts and does an integrity check of the data in a DATA_BLOB structure. |
| CryptUnprotectMemory Decrypts memory that was encrypted using the CryptProtectMemory function. |
| CryptUpdateProtectedState Migrates the current user's master keys after the user's security identifier (SID) has changed. |
Structures
| CRYPT_INTEGER_BLOB The CryptoAPI CRYPT_INTEGER_BLOB (dpapi.h) structure is used for an arbitrary array of bytes. It is declared in Wincrypt.h and provides flexibility for objects that can contain various data types. (CRYPT_INTEGER_BLOB) |
| CRYPTPROTECT_PROMPTSTRUCT Provides the text of a prompt and information about when and where that prompt is to be displayed when using the CryptProtectData and CryptUnprotectData functions. |
