Solaris Key Management Framework

In the Solaris Express Community Edition, the Key Management Framework (KMF) provides tools and programming interfaces for managing public key objects. Public key objects include X.509 certificates and public/private key pairs. The formats for storing these objects can vary. KMF also provides a tool for managing policies that define the use of X.509 certificates by applications. In the Solaris Express Community Edition, KMF supports third-party plugins.
