> Similar to the other supported SSO mechanisms like SAML and OpenID, the Guacamole web application should provide for authentication of users using smart cards (and similar hardware devices). Leveraging SSL/TLS client authentication, it should be possible to allow users to sign in with any hardware device supported by their browser as long as those devices contain a certificate that was signed by a certificate authority that the administrator has configured the Guacamole webapp to accept.
> *NOTE:* This is only related to authentication with the web application. The concept of authenticating with remote desktop services using smart cards is very separate and would likely involve adding support for Kerberos or somehow directly interacting with the card reader over USB.
