Description-en: OpenSSL engine for PKCS#11 modules
With this engine for OpenSSL you can use OpenSSL library
and command line tools with any PKCS#11 implementation as
backend for the crypto operations.
.
Engine_pkcs11 was developed for smart cards, and mostly
for the OpenSC PKCS#11 module, but it should work fine with
any PKCS#11 implementation.
.
Engine_pkcs11 is a spin off from OpenSC and replaced
libopensc-openssl.
