Abstract
Apparatuses and methods are provided for interface logic that is configurable to operatively couple cryptography support logic and cryptography providing logic. The interface logic provides at least one management function to the cryptography providing logic. The management function includes at least one of the following four management functions: an identity management function, a file management function, a container management function, and a cryptography management function.
