Smartcard and Javacard tokens are reliable, cost effective and easy to use cryptographic devices. They have cryptographic processor and protected memory onboard. ControlSphere is compatible with the most known smartcard and a lot of javacard devices supported by middleware software.
Smartcards and USB tokens supported directly by use of their original middleware
Aladdin eToken All modifications of eToken devices are supported. This includes USB tokens and smartcards.
Eutronsec CryptoIdentity/CryptoCombo All types of security USB tokens are supported.
Feitian ePass All types of Feitian USB tokens and COS smartcards are supported, including the fingerprint-enabled Bio ePass 3000 token.
Rainbow/SafeNet iKey 2000 and 3000 iKey 2000 and 3000 USB key series are fully supported.
Spyrus Rosetta Rosetta USB token and smartcard are supported.
ControlSphere uses the following middleware interfaces to support broad range of hardware
Charismathics Smart Security Interface This universal middleware provides support for a great number of hardware tokens, smartcards and javacards.
CryptoVision act sc/interface This universal middleware
provides support for a great number of hardware tokens, smartcards and javacards.
SafeSign for StarCos All tokens running Giesecke & Devrient STARCOS operating system (2.x-3.x) are supported by this middleware.
Incompatible devices
Most often incompatibility is caused by absence of a correct device middleware. If you believe that your smartcard/token is not supported by ControlSphere, please contact us to investigate on and solve this problem. We are happy to help with the consulting and the hardware integration.
