Smart Cards

Smart Cards are primarily used for storing OpenPGP cryptographic keys which are used as a building block for security controls. These smart cards hold OpenPGP keys which are derived in secure environments.

There are three primary requirements for smart cards:

  • FIPS 140-2

  • Support for Ed25519 OpenPGP

  • Touch for enacting operations

Notes

  • Librem smartcards are not recommended because they don't have touch capabilities

  • NitroKey and SoloKey are favored due to their fully open nature and therefore verifiability

  • YubiKey has the advantage of being the most battle tested but is not verifiable and has had issues in the past (Infineon bug)

Some options include: // ANCHOR: smart-cards

  • NitroKey 3

  • YubiKey 5
