Would it be possible to create standard like FIDO U2F ?: https://www.yubico.com/applications/fido/ So vendors can create devices which people can use to encrypt their data without leaking their keys. Sounds like a device like that has to at least support 3 actions: - encrypt data - decrypt data - provide public key information Or does such a device already exist ? Maybe it's possible to use existing HSM standards ? _______________________________________________ Freedombox-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss
