With the rapaid prevalence of internet, people are be accustomed to get more information from internet step by step, and then security problems are raised. Cryptanalysis is the base of information security, and all applications are constructed on it. So, as a rock-bottom service, its common,reliability,capability become so important. As we know that, native corporations of information security are all do the same thing: product devices of cipher, for some pursome, these devices' interface are not uniform, and it is hard for above user or developers. They have to modify codes to change devices, and it is also hard for upper maintenance.PKCS is an interface for public key cryptanalysis rasied by RSA Co. PKCS includes a series of protocols, and PKCS#11 protocol is a standard for cipher devices. It describle a program interface called Cryptoki, and it can be used for all kinds of devices that can be transplanted. The cryptoki rasied a common logical model. Users can use device even if they don't know the technology details about device. We rasied PKCS#11 protocl for two aims: one is that it can mask the difference of different devices, and gives an uniform interface for users; Second is that it can make share security service for many users, and also an application can acess more than one device.WPKCS#11 product we developed is based on PKCS#11 protocol and above ideas. It providers a common interface, it masks the difference of devices and OS, and encapsulates the complicate interface to simple service. This reduces the work of programs' development and maintenance, and makes it easy reusing software. It also provider a template for rapaid development of devices' logical Token..
