Cryptopro csp latest version. Purpose of CryptoPro CSP

CSP CryptoPro is a program for adding and checking digital files. It adds and protects cryptographic files (electronic documents) that contain a digital signature. CryptoPro has "Winlogon" for very important documents and third-party files that support a digital certificate.

CSP CryptoPro is used in companies that have documents in electronic form. The program provides protection and legal force for valuable documents and securities in digital form. Digitally signed data has the power of official documents.

CSP CryptoPro allows you to create digital security and sign (certificate) for any document. This program is suitable for organizations with valid GOST standards. It controls the data and structure of information. Security program algorithms are managed through a special manager.

You can configure the CryptoPro CSP and specify the level of protection and confidentiality of documents. After setup, some documents will be strictly confidential. The program is equipped with tools that issue and verify security certificates. Using the CryptoPro Winlogon module, you can register new users in the Windows operating system.

CryptoPro Winlogon works with support for the Kerberos V5 protocol. Login and access to data is carried out after a complete verification of the certificate of the storage medium located in the organization.

The crypto provider provides protection for various sources of digital data. Older organizations and companies use hardware to support floppy disks. CryptoPro was created on a commercial basis with a paid license. Once you install the program, you use it for 30 days, that is, a trial period. After this you will have to buy a license.

Key Features

  • Digital certificate protection through verification tools;
  • full verification of digital documents and the relevance of the certificate;
  • electronic registration of documents on a legal basis;
  • accessing and verifying the certificate on the main media;
  • full control and verification of data after information transfer;
  • comparison of document size and other algorithms for work;
  • the program supports documents that are created in accordance with these GOSTs;
  • complete protection of digital documents and customization of the degree of protection;

CryptoPro CSP 5.0 is a new generation of crypto provider, developing three main product lines of the CryptoPro company: CryptoPro CSP (classic tokens and other passive storage of secret keys), CryptoPro FKN CSP/Rutoken CSP (unretrievable keys on tokens with secure messaging) and CryptoPro DSS (keys in the cloud).

All the advantages of products from these lines are not only preserved, but also multiplied in CryptoPro CSP 5.0: the list of supported platforms and algorithms is wider, performance is higher, and the user interface is more convenient. But the main thing is that working with all key media, including keys in the cloud, is now uniform. To transfer the application system in which CryptoPro CSP of any version worked to support keys in the cloud or to new media with non-removable keys, no software reworking will be required - the access interface remains the same, and work with the key in the cloud will occur exactly the same in the same way as with the classic key carrier.

Purpose of CryptoPro CSP

  • Generating and verifying an electronic signature.
  • Ensuring confidentiality and monitoring the integrity of information through its encryption and imitation protection.
  • Ensuring authenticity, confidentiality and imitational protection of connections using the and protocols.
  • Monitoring the integrity of system and application software to protect it from unauthorized changes and violations of trusted functioning.

Supported Algorithms

In CryptoPro CSP 5.0, along with Russian ones, foreign cryptographic algorithms are implemented. Now users have the opportunity to use familiar key media to store RSA and ECDSA private keys.

Supported key storage technologies

Cloud token

In the cryptoprovider CryptoPro CSP 5.0, for the first time, it became possible to use keys stored on the CryptoPro DSS cloud service through the CryptoAPI interface. Now keys stored in the cloud can be easily used by any user applications, as well as most Microsoft applications.

Media with non-retrievable keys and secure messaging

CryptoPro CSP 5.0 adds support for media with non-retrievable keys that implement the protocol SESPAKE, allowing authentication without transmitting the user’s password in clear text, and establishing an encrypted channel for the exchange of messages between the crypto provider and the carrier. An attacker located in the channel between the medium and the user's application can neither steal the authentication password nor replace the signed data. When using such media, the problem of secure work with non-removable keys is completely solved.

The companies Active, InfoCrypt, SmartPark and Gemalto have developed new secure tokens that support this protocol (SmartPark and Gemalto starting from version 5.0 R2).

Media with non-removable keys

Many users want to be able to work with non-retrievable keys, but not upgrade tokens to the FKN level. Especially for them, the provider has added support for the popular key carriers Rutoken EDS 2.0, JaCarta-2 GOST and InfoCrypt VPN-Key-TLS.

After purchasing a license in our online store, you will receive an email in which you will find:

  • product license key
  • link to product distribution
  • link to user manual
Since no one likes to read the user manual anyway (and you wouldn’t be reading this article if you had read the manual), we only need product license key And link to distribution.

Step 1

First you need to find out whether you have installed Cryptopro CSP earlier and if installed, what version?

This can be done by carefully examining your Start menu: there should be an item CRYPTO-PRO, which has a program CryptoPro CSP.

If you don’t find it, most likely you don’t have CryptoPRO installed, so feel free to go to.

If you find it, run it CryptoPro CSP. There we see the General tab, where the license validity period and version number are indicated.

If the version number matches the version you purchased (for example, if the window says 4.0.****, and you bought CryptoPro CSP 4.0, it means it matches), then you you don't have to reinstall the program, but simply enter the license key. How to do this - look at .

Step 2

You find out that the program is not installed. This means you need to download CryptoPro CSP and install it.

Downloading it is not so easy: the crypto provider is a means of cryptographic information protection, which means its distribution is subject to registration with the relevant authorities. Therefore, you will need to follow the link that came to you in the letter or go to the CryptoPro website yourself using the link http://www.cryptopro.ru/downloads and select from the list of products CryptoPro CSP.

You will see something like this:


Click on the link " Pre-registration" and fill out a form from many fields. After filling out the form and registering, you will be required to agree to the license agreement, and then you will still have the opportunity to download the program distribution.

At the time of publication, the distribution selection page looks like this:


If you purchased the version CryptoPro CSP 3.6, then you will need to select a version R4- today it is the most functional.

If you purchased a license for CryptoPro CSP 3.9 be careful: CryptoPro CSP 3.9 - certified version, but does not support Windows 10, CryptoPro CSP 3.9R2 - supports Windows 10, certification planned for Q4 2015

If you bought version 4.0, then select CryptoPro CSP 4.0 accordingly (recommended for working with Windows 10, certification is planned for the third quarter of 2015).

You will need to download this file:

Step 3

You have downloaded the installation file CryptoPro CSP, and now you will need to install the program itself. To do this, run the installation file; if we see a security warning, you need to allow the program to make changes on your computer. In the window that opens, click the button Install (recommended)

Installation of the program occurs automatically within a few minutes and does not require user participation.


All, Installation completed.

Step 4

Now you need to enter the license key in a special window. You can get to it this way (the path may vary slightly depending on the version of the operating system):

Start - Programs - CryptoPro - CryptoPro CSP.

Then press the button Entering a license


In the window that opens, fill in the fields in accordance with the received license.


Step 5

We rejoice! We have just installed a crypto provider. Not that hard, right?

But you need to understand that CryptoPro CSP itself cannot do anything. The next step is to install (or simply configure) programs that will interact with CryptoPro CSP and solve your problems, be it electronic signature, encryption or something else.

Usually, to carry out an electronic signature, they use or - they can be purchased from us in the online store. We tried to make the purchase as convenient as possible: electronic licenses are sent immediately after payment (even at night), a large selection of payment methods.

If you found the instructions useful - share it, you will find buttons for this right below the article.

In the following instructions I will tell you, how to install CryptoPro Office Signature , CryptoARM, how to work with tokens and so on.

CIPF(a cryptographic information protection tool) “CryptoPro CSP” is an independent OS module designed to perform various cryptographic operations, such as electronic signature, encryption, and imitation protection. The functioning of the vast majority of encryption software products is impossible without a crypto provider, and signing electronic signature documents is also impossible.

The functionality of the CryptoPro CSP module is that it:

  • allows you to submit reports electronically to various government agencies;
  • ensures participation in electronic trading;
  • organizes legally significant document flow;
  • protects confidential information at the time of its transmission.
Module "CryptoPro CSP" developed by CRYPTO-PRO, a company that is one of the leaders in the information security market. At this time, 5 versions of the CryptoPro CSP module have been released, the difference between which lies in the following parameters: the operating system in which the program operates; supported cryptographic algorithms; validity periods of certificates issued by competent authorities. The development company has posted a table on its official Internet resource with a detailed comparison of all current versions of the CryptoPro CSP module. On this website, the development company has posted information about current certificates.

How to install “CryptoPro 4.0”
