I'm looking for information on communicating with the Safesign aetcrss1.dll.
The Dll is a middle for a smartcard security token. The 3 manufactures involve and the Australia government department have all given me the run-around.

For a project for the Australian government I need to be able to read the subject of the PKI certificate on the token because it is a parameter for communicating with a web service. The certificate is actually installed in the windows cert store but then I still need enough info from the token in order to select the correct certificate.

I have not been able to locate an SDK or any API documentation for this middleware and hope that someone here may have already worked with it.

Thank you in advance

afraid not - and Ive worked with a few government depts over the years (ATO, MedicareAustralia/Dept of inHuman Services to name two) - unfortunately the first rule of security is 'don't talk about security'.. Luckily, ATO and MCA are very good to deal with. I had a look at AET (the SafeSign manufacturer)'s website and its not exactly brimming with information either

As with most Government things, you'll likely have to escalate your issue 'up the line' until it causes someone pain enough to help you
