.. currentmodule:: cryptography.hazmat.backends.commoncrypto.backend

.. versionadded:: 0.2

.. data:: cryptography.hazmat.backends.commoncrypto.backend

    This is the exposed API for the CommonCrypto backend.

    It implements the following interfaces:

    * :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.CipherBackend`
    * :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.HashBackend`
    * :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.HMACBackend`
    * :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.backends.interfaces.PBKDF2HMACBackend`

    It has one additional public attribute.

    .. attribute:: name
