    Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to
    support cross-platform development of security-enabled client and
    server applications. Applications built with NSS can support SSL v2
    and v3, TLS, PKCS #5, PKCS #7, PKCS #11, PKCS #12, S/MIME, X.509
    v3 certificates, and other security standards.
