OpenSC provides a set of libraries and utilities to access smart cards.
|
||
|
Its main focus is on cards that support cryptographic operations, and
|
||
|
facilitate their use in security applications such as mail encryption,
|
||
|
authentication, and digital signature. OpenSC implements the PKCS#11 API
|
||
|
so applications supporting this API such as Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird
|
||
|
can use it. OpenSC implements the PKCS#15 standard and aims to be compatible
|
||
|
with every software that does so, too.
