About pcscd

From Debian's package description

The purpose of PC/SC Lite is to provide a Windows(R) SCard interface in a very small form factor for communicating to smart cards and smart cards readers.

The PC/SC daemon is used to dynamically allocate/deallocate reader drivers at runtime and manage connections to the readers.

From Debian's description of the pcscd package, under that package's license.
