PaKChoiS

  • Github Repository
  • pakchois is just another PKCS #11 wrapper library. pakchois aims to provide a thin wrapper over the PKCS#11 interface. The goals are as follows:

    1. to offer a modern object-oriented C interface wrapper for PKCS#11.
    2. to not hide or abstract away any details of the PKCS#11 interface itself except where absolutely necessary.
    3. to handle the details of loading DSOs
    4. to allow the caller to avoid caring about where on the system PKCS#11 modules might be stored, or exactly how they are named
    5. to avoid any dependency on a particular cryptography toolkit.

    Existing PKCS#11 wrapper libraries solutions differ in at least one of the above goals.
