    // Utility class to provide the "one true way" of getting instances of
    // cryptographic algorithms, like SymmetricAlgorithm and HashAlgorithm.

    // From discussions with Microsoft and the crypto board, we should prefer
    // the CNG implementations of algorithms, then the CAPI implementations,
    // then finally managed implementations if there are no CNG / CAPI
    // implementations. The CNG / CAPI implementations are preferred for
    // expandability, FIPS-compliance, and performance.
    //
    // .NET Framework 4.5 allows us to make two core assumptions:
    // - The built-in HMAC classes have been updated for FIPS compliance.
    // - Since .NET 4.5 requires Windows Server 2008 or greater, we can
    //   assume that CNG is available on the box.
    //
    // Note that some algorithms (MD5, DES, etc.) aren't FIPS-compliant
    // under any circumstance. Calling these methods when the OS is
    // configured to allow only FIPS-compliant algorithms will result
    // in an exception being thrown.
    //
    // The .NET Framework's built-in algorithms don't need to be created
    // under the application impersonation context since they don't depend
    // on the impersonated identity.
