Nitrokey 3
PIV/FIPS 201-3 and extended hardware support for Trussed/Nitrokey
Nitrokey 3 is an open source hardware USB/NFC key aiming for data encryption and two-factor authentication. Currently it supports FIDO2 authentication and WebCrypt. This project will allow it to extend its Rust firmware, developing additional functionality which makes it into a full-featured open hardware security key. By adding support for new so called 'secure elements' to Trussed, any device using Trussed can benefit from more hardware options. Within the project we will also develop PIV support for Nitrokey 3. PIV is a smart card standard which is used in enterprises and also popular among users of some operating systems like Microsoft Windows. PIV allows for data encryption, signing and authentication.
