Smartcard..?

[/dev/null]

Hello everyone!

I just got a laptop that came with a smartcard reader. I'd like to purchase a smartcard that can hold my SSH keys, drive encryption keys, etc.

Anyone have suggestions on where to buy such a smartcard in the US/online?

My card reader is built into a Latitude 7480.

Any pointers appreciated. Searching the forums show very few recent threads with "smartcard" in the subject line.

No clue about it, but I found this one
https://www.amazon.com/PIVKey-C910-PKI-Smart-Card/dp/B00SJV2CNK/

Or just get a usb one?

I use it with pwsafe to store my passwords (can also be made to work with steam).

Well going by space...
the Cresendo 1150 has 80 KB
the Gemalto 840 has 80KB (only 50 for available for certs whatever that means)
the PIV v2 has 128KB
the .NET has 128KB

I'm not sure if this forum is the best place to find out about smart cards, seems more like an enterprisey question?

It seems just make sure you buy ones that are unlocked so you can use something like:

You going to do proximity access control (doors, car, etc) in addition to having a PKI card?
