Windows DPAPI Golang package

[Jan Berktold]

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know a Go package which provides an interface to the Windows Data Protection API?

I am pretty much searching for the Go equivalent of this: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.cryptography.protecteddata(v=vs.110).aspx

Thanks in advance

That is the .net API; the equivalent C API is

Looking on godoc.org and github, I don't see any pre-made packages that implement this. However, you can use golang.org/x/sys/windows to call this function yourself.

https://github.com/search?q=cryptprotectdata+language%3Ago&type=Code shows that there are a few projects using htis internally, if you need some sample code.

Good luck!
