Sort of. Triple-DES is used to protect the master key derived from the credentials, but I’ve never seen Microsoft say what they actually use to encrypt the data blob. > I am searching for such library in Python using AES Algorithm.

Nope. Remember that win32crypt is nothing but a thin layer that calls the Windows CryptProtectData API. The API does a remote procedure call into the Windows LSA (Local Security Authority) to get access to the login credentials through an undocumented internal function. You can certainly find AES encryption for Python, but it’s not going to use the login credentials. — Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc.
