+
+PKCS11 is a standard created by RSA, Inc to support hardware and
+software encryption modules. It can be used by smartcard to expose the
+crypto primitives inside without exposing the crypto keys.
+
+Hx509 includes a software implementation of PKCS11 that runs within the
+memory space of the process and thus exposes the keys to the
+application.
