+ <longdescription lang="en">
+A high level, “more Pythonic” interface to the PKCS#11 (Cryptoki) standard to support HSM and Smartcard devices in Python.
+
+The interface is designed to follow the logical structure of a HSM, with useful defaults for obscurely documented parameters. Many APIs will
+optionally accept iterables and act as generators, allowing you to stream large data blocks for symmetric encryption.
+
+python-pkcs11 also includes numerous utility functions to convert between PKCS #11 data structures and common interchange formats including PKCS #1
+and X.509.
+
+python-pkcs11 is fully documented and has a full integration test suite for all features, with continuous integration against multiple HSM platforms including:
+Thales nCipher
+Opencryptoki TP
+OpenSC/Smartcard-HSM/Nitrokey HSM
