It arrived yesterday. GlobalSign gave me a "blank" USB security token device - a SafeNet eToken 5100. Unfortunately the user-experience is terrible. It requires its own special driver instead of using Microsoft's own standard USB security token driver or emulating a smart-card device. The UI is horribly designed and covered in logos. It's also impossible to get drivers directly from SafeNet / Gemalto, they're distributed by the CA (in this case, GlobalSign). I had issues with the driver's background service refusing to start and my Windows logon-screen now has 6 extra buttons for duplicate token devices even when the USB token isn't plugged in.

GlobalSign also requires the use of Internet Explorer on Windows (not even Edge) to provision the USB token because it uses the Windows Certificate provisioning ActiveX control - you're SOL if you're on Linux or Mac, but at least after the token is provisioned you can use the token with a Mac. This provisioning process is what puts my private-key and the CA-issued cert on the token.

I would like to extract my information from the token and move it to a better-implemented device, such as another USB token that doesn't require special drivers, similar to the experience I had with my old employer's smartcard-based PKI).

I am using VirtualHere version 3.5.0 for Windows.

When I start vhui, I can see my card reader and I can click on 'Use' and then in 'Devise Manager' I can see smart car Gemalto and smart card reader. The issue is that when I am starting application which requires this card and try to login, I get error information that there is no card.

What can I do?

OK, it doesnt seem to be loading a driver server side so i think we can assume the token is not being interacted with locally on the server so i dont know what the problem is, it looks like this particular token wont work with virtualhere for some unknown reason.

You are definately using the latest token drivers on the client side? I have had customers with a not working token via virtualhere (different brand) and updating to latest token drivers gets it working...

Hi Michael, thx for your product.

I activated my license and have a working link between Omega Onion.io server (OpenWRT binary) with expansion dock and Windows 10 Pro running into a Virtualbox on a debian host at OVH.

When I put a USB stick, it's not that fast but it works listing the directory.

When I connect my ARC38u (same with HMC) it shows in My Computer; when I put my Belgian eID smartcard it shows the card; driver is successfully displayed in the reader's propoerties. Nevertheless the reader is not recognized by calling applications (.Net nor Java).

Any ideas ?

Kr,

I have upgrade to Mac OS 14 and my smart card reader quit working. Works in safe mode and while booting up. Then stops functioning.Allow Accessories to connect is not visible. However, I can search for the function but not select it.MacBook Air M1, Sonoma Beta.

Mine has stopped working also. I can view the USB Card readers in the System Report, but it appears the readers aren't reading my actual card. Likely a firmware issue. Tried on two different card readers. 2020 MBP M1, Sonoma Developer Beta 2.

The latest update push did not solve our issue. I really relied on my MacBook Air M1 for telework. Now, I have to use a Microsoft device. Not good at the moment. I might need to roll back off the beta program until this issue with trusted USB devices is solved.

The smart card and reader works perfectly in Ventura and worked perfectly in the first developer beta of macOS Sonoma, but somewhere either beta 2 or beta 3 of the developer previews it stopped working.

I have replicated this with a clean install on different Mac hardware and the same issue. This is a Sonoma issue and not a reader or Mac hardware issue as the same reader and smart card continue to work well if I plug them into Ventura machine.

Just to confirm, a clean install of the released public version on 27th September - and still smart cards are NOT working, whereas they work perfectly on Ventura (and did on initial developer builds of Sonoma)

Yeah, it's not completely fixed for me, either. I'm on the RC, or Gold Master, or wherever we are at now. I can use the card reader to open sites in Safari, and to log into our virtual desktop, but once I do that, I can't use it for anything inside the virtual desktop. It can see the card reader but can't read the tokens off it. This same computer (2022 M1 MBP) worked fine the day prior to updating to the RC. No changes to hardware or software apart from the OS itself, and it stopped passing card reader credentials through to the virtual machine.

I GOT IT WORKING in macOS 14.1 Beta (23B5046f) by INSTEAD of connecting by USB, I connected with BlueTooth using the GBDM App (Gemalto Card Reader for Barclays iPortal login) and connecting the card reader by BLUETOOTH (which has NEVER been possible in Ventura, it always failed to connect)

I had been using a Saicoo card reader (FBA_S0201B-SSM) which was working fine on macOS 13 (Ventura). Upon upgrading to Sonoma 14.0, the reader stopped functioning. I then purchased the Belkin F1DN008U card reader and it works out of the box with no additional drivers. I also have heard success with the Identiv SCR3310v2.0 card reader on macOS 14.0. Hope this helps if someone is encountering the same issue. It appears like there may be some card readers that stop functioning on macOS 14.0 due to the built in driver not being compatible.

The company was purchased by Thales Group in April 2019 and is now operating as Thales DIS (Digital Identity and Security).[2] Gemalto was until its acquisition the world's largest manufacturer of SIM cards.[3]

Thales DIS is headquartered in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and has subsidiaries and group companies in several countries. It has approximately 15,000 employees in 110 offices along with 24 production sites, 47 personalization centers, and 35 R&D centers in 47 countries.[1]

Schlumberger began its chip card activities in February 1979 when it licensed and marketed certain chip card technologies developed and patented by Roland Moreno, who is generally credited with the invention of the chip card.

Schlumberger developed the first telephone chip cards for France Telecom and the Swedish telecommunications operator Telia in the early 1980s. The company developed ties with telecommunications operators in several countries, and played a role in industry-wide efforts to develop new digital mobile communication standards, particularly the GSM transmission standard (Global System for Mobile Communication). Schlumberger designed its first SIM card in the early 1990s for the launch of GSM in Europe, and this led to the use of microprocessor card technology as an access and security solution[buzzword] for mobile telephony worldwide, in 3 billion handsets today.[7]

Schlumberger experienced internal and external growth since the launch of its chip card operations in the early 1980s through the 1990s and 2000s, both in terms of revenue and product portfolio, particularly with the substantial growth in GSM-based mobile telecommunications. Acquisitions of regional companies in card production and personalization included Cowells (United Kingdom), Malco (United States), Printer (Mexico) and Cardtech (Brazil), followed by Solaic in 1996 and Bull-CP8 from Bull in 2001, in France and China.

In 2003, Schlumberger created Axalto as a division to consolidate into one company all of its card and POS terminal activities, which until then had been managed by several subsidiaries and joint ventures of the Schlumberger group. Subsequently, Axalto was listed on the Euronext Paris market on May 18, 2004.

Founded by Marc Lassus, Daniel Le Gal, Philippe Maes, Jean-Pierre Gloton and Gilles Lisimaque, Gemplus started its operations in 1988 as a supplier of prepaid phonecards. Because of its presence in the market of the prepaid phonecards during the 1990s, the company developed ties with the telecommunications industry along with Schlumberger.

Prior to 1999, the business was conducted through Gemplus S.C.A., a French limited partnership. In December 1999, Gemplus Associates, the general partner of Gemplus S.C.A., merged into Gemplus S.C.A., which became a joint stock company, Gemplus SA. In February 2000, the corporate structure was reorganized and a new holding company, Gemplus International SA, a Luxembourg corporation, was created. Texas Pacific Group became a shareholder of Gemplus at the time of its equity contribution in February 2000.
