2、ublished by RSA Laboratories. It defines a platform-independent API to cryptographic tokens, such as Hardware Security Modules and smart cards. Since there isnt a real standard for cryptographic tokens, this API has been developed to be an abstraction layer for the generic cryptographic token. The P
3、KCS#11 API defines most commonly used cryptographic object types and all the functions needed to use, create/generate, modify and delete those objects. -PKCS#11 is largely adopted to access smart cards and HSMs. Most commercial Certification Authority software uses PKCS#11 to access the CA signing k

NSSpkcs-11v2-20.doc BackgroundPortable computing devices such as smart cards, PCMCIA cards, and smart diskettes are ideal tools for implementing public-key cry
5、ptography, as they provide a way to store the private-key component of a public-key/private-key pair securely, under the control of a single user. With such a device, a cryptographic application, rather than performing cryptographic operations itself, utilizes the device to perform the operations, w

As more applications are developed for public-key cryptography, a standard programming interface for these devices becomes increasingly valuable.

8、token . A token is a device that stores objects and can perform cryptographic functions.cryptoki是token的接口 General Cryptoki Model Object HierarchyCryptoki defines three classes of object UsersThis version of Cryptoki recognizes two token user types.One type is a Security Officer .The other type is th
9、e normal user. The role of the SO is to initialize a token and to set the normal users PIN, and possibly to manipulate some public objects. Only the normal user is allowed access to private objects on the token, and that access is granted only after the normal user has been authenticated. SessionCry
10、ptoki requires that an application open one or more sessions with a token to gain access to the tokens objects and functions. A session provides a logical connection between the application and the token. Cryptoki supports multiple sessions on multiple tokens. A session can be a read/write session o
11、r a read-only session. Session eventsSession events cause the session state to change. The following table describes the events:EventOccurs when.Log In SOthe SO is authenticated to the token.Log In Userthe normal user is authenticated to the token.Log Outthe application logs out the current user (SO
12、 or normal user).Close Sessionthe application closes the session or closes all sessions.Device Removed the device underlying the token has been removed from its slot.
