New CNG SDK for Vista and Server 2008 Released
Version 1.3 of the Cryptographic Next Generation Software Development Kit for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 is available on the Microsoft Download Center. CNG content is no longer included in the Windows SDKs. If you want to develop cryptographic applications and libraries targeting the Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008 Operating Systems, this is the SDK for you. If you are using Visual Studio 2005, you will also need to install the Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 or the older Windows SDK for Vista Update. If you are using Visual Studio 2008, which includes content from the Windows SDK for Vista Update, you will not need to install a standalone SDK. The CNG SDK contains documentation, code, and tools to help you learn about CNG and develop CNG applications for Vista and Server 2008, and includes a few files that were missing in the last release.
