Overview

Utimaco provides a PKCS#11 library interface to our HSM hardware.

  • libcs_pkcs11_R3.so (shared)

  • libcs_pkcs11_R3_m.a (static)

Utimaco provides tools for managing users and PKCS#11 on the HSMs.

  • Utimaco CryptoServer Admin Tool (csadm)
    Administration tool for the CryptoServer HSM LAN and PCIe card

  • Utimaco CXI Tool (cxitool)
    Administration tool for creation, use and management of CXI keys

  • UtimacoPKCS#11 Tool (p11tool2)
    Administration tool for PKCS#11 slots, SO and USER and PKCS#11 keys

Combined, the tools are used to configure the Utimaco HSM to hold cryptographic materials. The HSM holds the Root of Trust symmetric encryption key for OKV.
