openCryptoki - A PKCS#11 implementation.

Description

openCryptoki  is an implementation of the PKCS#11 API standard. It provides an interface to the functions
       of underlying cryptographic tokens, which may be  implemented  via  software  or  hardware.  The  PKCS#11
       specification  has  been  released  by RSA Labs. More information on PKCS#11 can be found on the RSA labs
       website: http://www.rsa.com/rsalabs.

       To use openCryptoki, run the pkcsslotd daemon. The daemon will read the opencryptoki.conf file to collect
       information about the tokens and their slots.

       Use the pkcsconf utility to further configure openCryptoki once the daemon is running.

Name

       openCryptoki - A PKCS#11 implementation.

Security Note

       All non-root users that require access to PKCS#11 tokens using  openCryptoki  must  be  assigned  to  the
       pkcs11  group  to  be  able  to communicate with the pkcsslotd daemon. Only fully trusted users should be
       granted membership in the group. Group members can block other openCryptoki users from accessing  PKCS#11
       tokens.
