Hello Everyone, I'm having a little trouble to set up a smart card environment which is totally opensource. My goal is to have a cryptographic sc which can store one or preferably two or three certificates and perform basic rsa operations. The card should be used for the key generation, authentication and signing. Thus I believe a PKCS11 module would be great and easy to use for this kind of usage.
I've been testing a few cards lately, (Cyberflex, Cryptoflex and GemSafeXpresso) to find after a few hours of testing that they require proprietary SDK's in the case of the javacards. The Cryptoflex worked fine with the opensc project, but I just heared Gemalto is planning on discontinuing them this summer. Does anyone know about a card that is really "open" without the CodeShield protection or anything else that forces the use of a proprietary SDK which I could use with the Muscle Framework (or eventually with the opensc project). Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I'm starting to feel that the smart-card industry is pretty hostile to open source. Best Regards, Christophe Gudin. PS: I'm cross-posting this message on the opensc mailing list, as their non-java cards project also has a PKCS11 module...
