The Intel Cryptography Primitives Library is an extensive library of ready-to-use cryptographic functions for multimedia, enterprise data, embedded, communications, and scientific and technical applications, optimized for diverse Intel architectures. Its royalty-free APIs help developers take advantage of single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) instructions, and the latest advanced encryption standard instruction set extensions (AES-NI) in the Intel microarchitecture.
With its initial launch in October 2024, the cryptography domain API of the Intel Integrated Performance Primitives Library has been split off and moved into this new library.
Recent focus in its development has been on FIPS 140 compliance and Post-Quantum Cryptography.
The library supports Intel and compatible processors and is available for Linux and Windows. It is available separately or as a part of Intel oneAPI Base Toolkit.
The Intel Cryptography Primitives Library is open source. Thus, in addition to the aforementioned binary release, it is also available as a source code release on GitHub. [3]
