"If you loose or damage your token: you loose your private key and any data encrypted to it. Because the key is generated inside the token and cannot leave it, it is not possible to make a backup of the private key." is a knockout criterium, though. Also an interactive PIN entry for each interaction is a no-no, if the machine is in a rack at the host. H4x0rs may break in and sign a few stray blobs, but they won't be able to steal the private key itself. > http://www.financialcryptography.com/mt/archives/000201.html -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org";>leitl</a> ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07078, 11.61144 http://www.leitl.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE http://moleculardevices.org http://nanomachines.net
