Use a Smart Card Certificate + Private Key for SSL/TLS Authentication

See more ScMinidriver Examples

Demonstrates how to use a certificate + private key located on a smart card for the TLS client certificate in an HTTPS request.

Note: This example only works on Windows. ScMinidriver is a Windows-specific smart card and USB token minidriver that enables smart card authentication and cryptographic operations within Windows operating systems.

'  "subjectCN" -- The common name part (CN) of the certificate's subject.
'  "serial" -- The certificate serial number.
'  "serial:issuerCN" -- The certificate serial number + the issuer's common name, delimited with a colon char.
'  These are the same certificate parts that can be retrieved by listing certificates on the smart card (or USB token).

'  If your application calls PinDeauthenticate or DeleteContext, the cert will no longer be able to sign on the smart card
'  because the smart card ScMinidriver session will no longer be authenticated or deleted.
