Citizen Card Middleware

Challenge
Redesign the tools, both online and offline, that allow the common citizen to interact with his Citizen Card of the Portuguese
Republic. Namely, the tools provide for viewing data on the card, changing PINs and address and signing documents. The online
component can be integrated in any site thus allowing a citizen to authenticate using only his Card. A zero-installation experience
is a paramount requirement.

Solution
Linkare works mainly on the online Java components, on which it has a fundamental role.
The technological solution is composed of two Java Applets described via JNLP which can
dynamically select native libraries appropriate to the enviroment in which they are running.
Native libraries provide PKCS#11 service which are invoked through JNI. One of Applets,
via a wrapper, uses the PKCS#11 API to manipulate de data on the Card. The other Applet,
makes use of a Java Provider to create SSL sessions signed by Card thus allowing
authentication with remote sites.
