Description-en: Python code for talking to a Yubico YubiHSM hardware
YubiHSM is an easy to use and affordable crypto appliance
that you connect to the USB port of a server. You can then
store cryptographic keys on the YubiHSM and use them from the
server without any possibility for an attacker to extract
the crypto keys from the YubiHSM.
.
Supported operations include YubiKey OTP validation, AES ECB
encrypt/decrypt/decrypt-compare, HMAC-SHA1 hashing (enabling OATH code
validation), and Random number entropy generation.
.
This package contains the core Python code for interacting with the
YubiHSM.
