Bring Your Own Token to Replace the Traditional Smartcards for Strong Authentication and Signing

Eric Hampshire, Karthik Ramasamy at Black Hat Europe 2019

This whitepaper describes the solution implemented at Cisco, to replace the traditional hybrid smartcards with Bring Your Own Token (BYOT) model, to overcome the limitations and challenges with the traditional smartcard solutions. The solution enables users to bring their own USB tokens that are compatible with Personal Identity Verification (PIV) and Chip Card Interface Device (CCID) standards, to self-provision the digital identities needed to enable strong authentication, signing and other cryptographic functions.
