CryptoPkg - lersek/edk2 GitHub Wiki

UEFI details interfaces between the OS and platform firmware. Several security features were introduced (e.g. Authenticated Variable Service, Driver Signing, etc) starting in UEFI Specification version 2.2 (http://www.uefi.org). These security features highly depend on cryptography, which is implemented in EDK II using CryptoPkg.
