# EJBCA

> Overview of integrating Futurex HSMs with EJBCA using PKCS #11, including conceptual and contextual info.

This document provides information about configuring Futurex HSMs with EJBCA by using PKCS #11 libraries. For additional questions related to your HSM, see the relevant administrator guide.

## About EJBCA

From the EJBCA website: EJBCA is one of the longest-running CA software projects, providing time-proven robustness and reliability. EJBCA is platform-independent and can easily be scaled out to match the needs of your PKI requirements, whether you're setting up a national eID, securing your industrial IOT platform, or managing your own internal PKI.

## Guardian integration

The Guardian Series 3 introduces mission-critical viability to core cryptographic infrastructure, including:

* Centralization of device management
* Elimination of points of failure
* Distribution of transaction loads
* Group-specific function blocking
* User-defined grouping systems

See the applicable guide in the Futurex Portal for configuring HSMs with the Guardian Series 3, including PKCS #11 and CNG configuration.
