cv act library/pc
Based on Standards
In terms of performance and interfaces, cv act library/pc
meets official standards and follows compatibility
guidelines (such as X.509, ANSI X9.62, X9.63,
IEEE P1363 as well as current FIPS standards, ISO/
IEC 14888 and 15946, and BSI TR-03110 including
EAC, PACE, CA, TA and RI) and the German digital
signature act. cv act library/pc contains all necessary
functions for cryptographic key generation.
All algorithms are accssable via a unitized objectoriented
interface; this allows to implement applica-

Object-orientated Standard API
Internal structure of the cv act library/pc
tions independently of the particular algorithm used.
The cv act library/pc enables customers to integrate
additional cryptographic primitives (algorithms). The
protocol layer is capable of using these additional
algorithms without additional modifications.
It is possible to use special security hardware to perform
cryptographic operations; smart cards, other
security tokens and even Hardware Security Modules
(HSM) can be integrated in a flexible way and
used via standard library functions.
