Abstract
The cryptographic resources are supplied by at least one cryptographic source having a specific access interface. The application is presented with a mutualized interface substantially independent of the cryptographic sources and of their respective access interfaces. A translation module is placed between the mutualized interface and each interface for accessing a cryptographic source to provide access to the cryptographic resources from the application via the mutualized interface.
