Debian Miniconf Paris/2010

I presented a talk titled "Smart cards in Debian" at the Debian Miniconf Paris, October 2010.

The slides (in English) of my talk are available online. The idea was to stay at a high level and present the different layers use in the smart card world. So no lines of code or screen dumps.

The topics are:

• ISO 7816-1, 2, 3 and 4
• Private/proprietary specifications
• Publicly documented specifications
• Programmable smart cards
• CCID
• PC/SC
• PKCS#11
• Python PC/SC wrapper
• Python PKCS#11 wrapper
• Electronic ID cards

I did not go into details. I wanted to show a big picture of the different smart card layers. That may be one of the most difficult things in a domain: know what to install and what layer is used by which one.

Comments are welcome.
