[Opendnssec-user] Differences between SoftHSMv1 and SoftHSMv2?

[Rick van Rein]

Hi Dave,

> What are the primary differences between version 1 and version 2 of SoftHSM?

v1 stores information, including private keys, without any encryption, v2 uses the PIN to derive an encryption scheme for the information stored.

Also, v1 is based on SQLite, and v2 has a more flexible storage backend structure.

There may be more, I’ll leave it to others to add that :)
