Description-en: Smart card utilities with support for PKCS#15 compatible cards
OpenSC provides a set of libraries and utilities to access smart
cards. It mainly focuses on cards that support cryptographic
operations. It facilitates their use in security applications such as
mail encryption, authentication, and digital signature. OpenSC
implements the PKCS#11 API. Applications supporting this API, such as
Iceweasel and Icedove, can use it. OpenSC implements the PKCS#15
standard and aims to be compatible with all software that does so as
well.
.
Before purchasing any cards, please read carefully documentation in
https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/wiki - only some cards are
supported. Not only does card type matters, but also card version,
card OS version and preloaded applet. Only a subset of possible
operations may be supported for your card. Card initialization may
require third party proprietary software.
.
This package contains the pkcs11 module.
