Building PKCS#11 Modules

The PKCS#11 standard enables easy integration of hardware tokens with a wide range of software applications, including document suites, web browsers, and password managers. This talk will cover the fundamentals of PKCS#11 v2 and introduce the srb-id-pkcs11 module. Developed in Zig, this module is the first open-source PKCS#11 implementation to support eID cards in Serbia and is used by dozens of citizens. We will also talk about reverse engineering techniques used in early stages of development.
