  - QNX Cryptography Library
    The QNX Cryptography Library (qcrypto) is a flexible cryptography framework that allows you to choose which cryptography provider responds to requests on a per-process basis.
    - QNX Cryptography Library
      The QNX cryptography library (qcrypto library) is a generic cryptographic shim layer that provides a consistent API to the various cryptographic primitives offered by third-party libraries.
    - Configuration File
      The qcrypto library configuration file allows the system integrator to define which cryptography providers are supported and available to the system.
    - Adding Cryptographic Primitives
      The libqcrypto_pluginS.a plugin library and qcrypto/qcrypto_plugin.h header file allow you to create a custom plugin to use with the qcrypto library.
    - Supported Primitives
      The qcrypto library provides a consistent API to cryptographic primitives offered by third-party libraries.
