Re: [opensc-devel] Initial support for SmartCard-HSM

That sounds nice. I haven't yet looked at the code.


 This driver is a read-only driver that works with SmartCard-HSMs that
 already contain keys and certificates.

Is there a technical reason for the driver to be read-only? I mean,
it would be nice if OpenSC could also be used to initialize tokens.

Perhaps write support would be optional at build time.


Kind regards

Dear Peter,

there is no technical reason, it's just because it's an easier first
milestone.

We plan to add full support in the next steps, including secure messaging.

Andreas

Nice.

Out of question, why is it called HSM?
What does it provide more than a crypto card?

Kind regards,
