Authentication Algorithms

Protocol++® includes support for necessary authentication algorithms found on www.protocolpp.com which can also be run stand alone. If detected at run time, most algorithms will use hardware acceleration. This feature has been enbabled for several years

x86, x64 (x86-64) hardware acceleration used when detected (feature has been enabled for several years)
- run-time CPU feature detection and code selection
- supports GCC-style and MSVC-style inline assembly, and MASM for x64
- x86, x64 (x86-64), x32 provides SSE2, SSE4 and AVX implementations
- AES, CRC, GCM and SHA use ARM, Intel and PowerPC hardware acceleration when available
- Random data generation uses SIMD instructions
