Description

Using an HSM or signing server for assertion signing is the most secure way to store private keys. These transactions typically need to take place over an asynchronous connection.

Added support for asynchronous XML signing using custom functions provided by the host application. I have created the relevant PR to xml-crypto and those have been published in [email protected]

References

Fixes #63
