> Add support for smart card authentication
> -----------------------------------------

> Key: GUACAMOLE-839
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-839
> Project: Guacamole
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: guacamole-client
> Reporter: Bastian Machek
> Assignee: Mike Jumper
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.6.0
>
>
> Similar to the other supported SSO mechanisms like SAML and OpenID, the
> Guacamole web application should provide for authentication of users using
> smart cards (and similar hardware devices). Leveraging SSL/TLS client
> authentication, it should be possible to allow users to sign in with any
> hardware device supported by their browser as long as those devices contain a
> certificate that was signed by a certificate authority that the administrator
> has configured the Guacamole webapp to accept.
> *NOTE:* This is only related to authentication with the web application. The
> concept of authenticating with remote desktop services using smart cards is
> very separate and would likely involve adding support for Kerberos or somehow
> directly interacting with the card reader over USB.
