Using SmartCard authentication

Introduction

Smart cards can authenticate identity and usually employ a public key infrastructure (PKI). The card
stores an encrypted digital certificate issued from the PKI provider along with other relevant
information. Smart cards can be used with a smart card reader to authenticate a user. Smart cards
improve the convenience and security of any transaction by providing tamper-proof storage of user
and account identities. Smart cards also provide vital components of system security for the
exchange of data throughout virtually any type of network. They protect against a full range of
security threats, from careless storage of user passwords to sophisticated system hacks.

Warning: Usage of adapters (30-pin to Lightning or any others) is not supported and highly advised against.
