libopensc is a library for accessing SmartCard devices using PC/SC Lite
|
|
|
|
middleware package. It is also the core library of the OpenSC project.
|
|
|
|
Basic functionality (e.g. SELECT FILE, READ BINARY) should work on any ISO
|
|
|
|
7816-4 compatible SmartCard. Encryption and decryption using private keys on
|
|
|
|
the SmartCard is at the moment possible only with PKCS#15 compatible cards,
|
|
|
|
such as the FINEID (Finnish Electronic IDentity) card manufactured by
|
|
|
|
Setec. Swedish eID Posten card has also confirmed to work.
