What is  cryptsvc32.dll

The cryptsvc32.dll file has been flagged by the system security tools of many users as a malicious application associated with a variant of the TROJ_TRACUR.SMB program, which is a family of Trojans known to infect unprotected Windows-based computers with outdated OS security certificates, unencrypted TCP/IP network ports and an unsecured Windows System Registry. Other user groups reported that their anti-malware applications flag the cryptsvc32.dll file as a malware item related to a component of the TROJ_TRACUR.AH program, which is another family of Trojans known to be embedded with spyware functionalities. Both user groups claim that the cryptsvc32.dll malware is distributed with executable component processes that are integrated with self-activating features. Upon the successful placement and activation of these EXE component files, certain registry strings are said to be created and injected by these executable processes into the unsecured Windows System Registry of the unprotected system. Some users claim that these keys and entries allow the cryptsvc32.dll malware and these EXE component processes to automatically initialize during system startup and operate as hidden background processes during system runtime. While running as hidden background processes, these users claim the cryptsvc32.dll malware finds and exploits certain system vulnerabilities, especially with unprotected Windows-based computers that have unprotected TCP/IP network ports and outdated OS security certificates. These exploited system vulnerabilities are then said to be used by the cryptsvc32.dll malware to initiate contact and establish data transmission lines with predesignated remote servers that are managed by the authors of the cryptsvc32.dll malware, in order for this malicious program to download more malware items unto the system. Some users claim that the cryptsvc32.dll malware also use these exploited TCP/IP network ports without the necessary encryption tokens and security keys to contact these remote servers and upload private user details and Internet surfing information that the cryptsvc32.dll malware has been reported to be capable of secretly collecting from the infected system and its installed Web browsers.
