OpenSC consists of tools and libraries and a PKCS#11 module to use smart cards and initialize blank smart cards. It supports many commercial smart cards with filesystems, many national ID cards (read only), and some Java Card cards with specific Java Card applets. OpenSC implements the PKCS#15 standard. Cards initialized with OpenSC can be used (read-only) with other software implementing PKCS#15 standard and vice versa.
