That would be great if PKCS11 support will be added for SmartCard Login. How can this be done? Safari supports client-side SSL certificates, which are commonly used to authenticate users securely. Does this address your need? If not, could you please provide more information about the specific technology you'd like us to support? A link to documentation would help a lot. Hi, Safari will not help for 2 reasons: - it uses the OS native SmartCard layer (Windows CSP, Mac Token D) - there is no port for Linux We would need to have a Cross platform Browser with PKC11 support. Like Firefox. We are now using Firefox but the overhead of features, size and not SDKable is a short term solution. As we are using QT and WebKit we would like to switch to this framework in order to build a secure browser with SmartCard Login support. The only missing piece is out of the box PKCS11 support in the WebKit |
