KeyIso service - Description and Recommendation
The CNG key isolation service is hosted in the LSA process. The service provides key process isolation to private keys and associated cryptographic operations as required by the Common Criteria. The service stores and uses long-lived keys in a secure process complying with Common Criteria requirements. It should not normally be disabled, as otherwise such cryptographic operations may fail.
