Engine_pkcs11 is an OpenSSL engine implementation that provides security and privacy for data transfer, encryption, and authentication using PKCS#11 interface.
Engine_pkcs11 is an OpenSSL engine implementation. This software can be loaded via various methods, including code, config file or command line. Upon loading, any function call by OpenSSL will be passed to a PKCS#11 module. This makes it perfect for use with smart cards and software that utilizes smart cards in the PKCS#11 format, such as OpenSC.
Originally, this engine was part of OpenSC, but it was split into smaller projects for enhanced flexibility. OpenSC was created by an international team and is licensed under the new BSD license as open-source software. The engine is based on the Libp11 library, which serves as its foundation.
In this release, several updates have been made. The wiki export script has been updated, and dead code has been deactivated. The maximum length for a pin is now set at 32 bytes. Internal variables and code have been set as static to streamline the software's performance. Additionally, the slot is now also parsed in hex, and support for selecting slots by label has been added.
Overall, Engine_pkcs11 is a powerful tool that can help streamline your use of smart card software. With its easy-to-use interface and wide range of features, it's the perfect choice for anyone looking to improve their smart card experience.
