Hey,
so "generally" this might work, but the devil's in the details. The questions I cannot answer as we haven't tested that explicitly:
The only way to find out if it actually works is to try it out, my guess is that the PDF signing will be the main issue...
hi @daringer , thanks for getting back to me.
I would love if we can verify these and document them for others. I have a nitrokey 3C with firmware 1.6.0 and a nitrokey HSM. I did not generate a certificate on the device yet. Used it just for FIDO/UF2 . Nitrokey HSM is unused atm.
Adobe PDF signing: Depends on how they interface the Nitrokey, if it's something like PKCS you will be fine, if a mini-driver and a full CSP is needed, this will not work as of now
Adobe works on Windows only IMO and it uses the windows subsystem. If nitrokey is visible for windows I think it should be usable. I can try this as well as soon as I generate a certificate on the key.
I think (need to check) the functionality is related to PIV https://www.nist.gov/identity-access-management/personal-identity-verification-piv .
Can you please share the guide you think it's best for me to try?
Also, Nitrokey company should check if nitrokey devices meet the technical/legal requirements according to EU law to be used in for digital signatures inside EU. That could be a new line of business for the company .
Hello,
I would like to know if it's possible to use nitrokey for EU digital identity https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy/priorities-2019-2024/europe-fit-digital-age/european-digital-identity_en .
I am aware that you need a certificate from a provider https://eidas.ec.europa.eu/efda/tl-browser/#/screen/home .
Assuming I can get a certificate from a trusted provider for Nitrokey. Could I:
NOTE: You might want to open the document with Adobe since pdf.js does not currently work with it ok.
Thanks, Eugen
