SecurityFoundation is a low-level macOS framework providing cryptographic primitives, certificate management, and secure storage operations. The wrapper translates between Python and Objective-C calling conventions, allowing you to call SecurityFoundation APIs directly from Python code without writing Objective-C.\n\nYou use it when you need to integrate macOS security features into a Python application\u2014certificate validation, cryptographic operations, or access to the system keychain. The package does not include its own documentation; you reference Apple's SecurityFoundation documentation alongside PyObjC's general translation guides. It requires Python 3.10 or later and only runs on macOS.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are developing on macOS and need direct access to SecurityFoundation APIs from Python. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and installs with low friction. The main constraint is that it only works on macOS and requires Python 3.10+; if you are on another platform or need to support older Python versions, it will not be usable."},"id":"pyobjc-framework-securityfoundation","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyobjc-framework-securityfoundation","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pyobjc-framework-securityfoundation.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pyobjc-framework-securityfoundation/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-11","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pyobjc-framework-SecurityFoundation","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Wrappers for the framework SecurityFoundation on macOS"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":655050,"position":5518,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"12.2.2"}
