Microsoft Crypto Service Provider API (MS CSP V2.0): Application interface on Windows platforms RSA Public Key Cryptographic Standard, Chapter #11 (PKCS#11, V2.11): Application interface on Windows, Linux and MAC OS X RSA Public Key Cryptographic Standard, Chapter #15 (PKCS#15): Dynamic PKCS#15 file system on the smart card PC/SC V2.01: Interface to smart card readers PC/SC V2.01, Part 10: Interface to smart card readers with PIN padДЈ Software pack The API software is delivered on CD ROM. The licenses of the ICC service providers and the accompanying utilities are included in the API license. In the case of terminal servers, the number of licenses corresponds to the maximum number of concurrent users for each terminal server. In the case of clients, the number of licenses corresponds to the total number of systems on which API software is installed.

License The software license is required to install and use the API software on a client workstation or on a Windows terminal server. The smart card is equipped with a special SigG PIN utility that has been designed specifically for use with the SigG application. PIN management (change PIN, reset incorrect entry counter with PUK) can either be carried out using a separate PIN management utility or via the Card Viewer. Objects saved on the smart card and their attributes as well as the properties of the used smart card can be displayed. The utility Card Viewer provides functions to initialize smart cards and import or delete data (such as keys, certificates or other objects). Additional utilities extend the scope of application. Support of various operating systems, use of international standards and the realization of up-to-date cryptographic algorithms ensure preparedness for the future. Therefore the API enables simple and efficient use of smart cards with asymmetric keys and certificates in numerous applications. The API provides a standards-based dynamic PKCS#15 file system on the smart card which can be customized. Various applications can access the same key material simultaneously via both interfaces. The PKCS#11 interface not only allows applications under Windows to use the API functionalities, but also applications on other platforms such as MAC OS and Linux. Via the CSP interface under Microsoft Windows, it provides key and certificate management for applications which is seamlessly integrated in the operating system. Standard cryptographic interface for using applications with smart cardsДў Description Utilities Supported standards API provides powerful implementations of the two standard application interfaces for cryptographic services: PKCS#11 (Cryptographic Token Interface) and CSP (Cryptographic Service Provider). Therefore API combined with the secure smart card operating system provides the perfect foundation for employee IDs at companies and organizations, student cards, signature cards and other ID cards in different industries, especially in the public sector and in the health sector. API enables efficient user-friendly implementation of smart cards for user authentication, data encryption and creation of digital signatures in a variety of application scenarios. API is compatible with international standards. 1 API V3.2 API is an integration software for the use of smart cards and security tokens in a variety of applications and heterogeneous operating system environments.
