List of use cases for certificates that require specific Cryptographic Service Providers (CSP) or Key Storage Providers (KSP)
With Windows Server 2008, together with the NSA Suite B algorithms (also known as Cryptography Next Generation, CNG), key storage providers were introduced as a new, modern interface for generating, storing, and using private keys in the Windows ecosystem.
In most cases, it does not matter which CSP or KSP is used for certificates. However, some applications will not work or will not work correctly if the wrong provider is chosen.
Below is a list of use cases I know of for certificates that only work with a specific cryptographic service provider (CSP) or key storage provider (KSP).
