FIDO2 over ISO 7816 (Contact IC Cards – Windows Only)

Unlike USB security keys (touch the sensor) or NFC cards (tap), contact IC cards used via a smart card reader must be removed and reinserted to complete authentication.

FIDO2 support over ISO 7816 contact interfaces is currently implemented on Windows only. Other operating systems do not provide full compatibility, therefore we recommend using this device with Windows 11 environments.

ISO 7816 transports are also not supported by common FIDO tools such as libfido2 or fido2-manage. Device provisioning and management must be performed using the Token2 Companion App.


Compatibility

Operating Systems: Windows only – plug-and-play with native Microsoft drivers.

Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 11 (32-bit & 64-bit) and Windows Server editions.

This desktop model is designed for stationary use and offers improved handling compared to mini/compact readers. It reads only contact-based smart cards with an embedded microprocessor chip.
Cards must have visible gold contacts to function correctly.
