Dell Smart Card Reader Keyboard Software Free Download

I have Dell external usb keyboard with smart card reader builtin. I want to use it to read my eID. When I plug the keyboard in, I can use the keyboard but not the smartcard reader. How can I use the smart card reader?

After installation plug in the keyboard, and it should work. Now, if you put your smart card in the reader, it should light up and smart card applications should recognize the card. You can test using Cardpeek (GUI) or the pcsc_scan (commandline).

Our domain has Smart Card enforcement enabled for all workstations through group policy. Deploying our Windows 10 enterprise image to local VMware Workstation Pro (licensed), I can connect Shared Dell Smart Card Reader Keyboard to the VM to be able to log in through the console. We have now purchased a machine to have as a stand-alone host for Hypervisor. Whether I use browser console, VMRC, or VMware Workstation Pro remotely connected to the server, I am unable to connect the Dell keyboard for smart card logon. Using RDP I am able to log in normally, but I would prefer having users log into the web console and just give them the VM name to use instead of having to fish the IP address each time. Would a remote connection to the host be preventing a shared keyboard (technical limitation), or is it a limitation of being not connected to a vCenter server? Is there an advanced setting I am missing that I have not been able to find any documentation on so far?

We're a dell shop here that has to use smartcards for logon/elevation. We've been using systems for over a decade with smart card readers, and ever since the E6410 latitude (~2010/2011) I've noticed they've kind of really sucked, at least on Windows 8.1.

Has anyone noticed this before? This happens across all of our dell laptops, and is notably worse in Windows 8.1. It happens using both the supplied Dell driver for the smart card reader as well as the windows one, and we don't use smart card drivers for the card itself (in fact the windows update driver breaks them if we accidentally install it during setup).

I've called to dell prosupport across many models over the years and essentially they tell me that since I don't use their system image, they won't help me. In a business that has a security level where you use smart cards for authentication, I find it pretty unbelievable that they would think we would use their system image (on windows pro versions no less).

Has anyone else experienced this? I have noticed this issue is remedied by having an external reader. Most users don't like this idea, but I don't know what else to do since dell won't do anything. It happens the most after the system goes to sleep and resumes.

All computers (save a few) here use dell smartcard reader keyboards (or HID ones) and they seem to almost always work, but the laptop ones are really flakey. With our pre-boot authentication requirements coming up (they rescinded it because of software issues) there have been times I have literally been unable to boot my laptop because the card reader simply would not work.

The keyboard readers seem to work adequate, but the integrated ones were always terrible. I remember back around 2008ish the large number of problems from people using Dell D610s who would shove their cards into the PC card slot.

Are you sitting in the same room with me? We're going through this now, it's quite a slog, especially when all the firmware updaters for internal readers are Windows only, so to get them to work with a *nix, we're extracting the firmware updater from Dell's package, booting the host into a WinPE via UEFI PXE, then hitting Shift-F10 to get a command prompt, then mounting a USB to copy and run the exe, just to update the stinking internal card reader firmware without installing Windows locally, and none of this is automatable. :/ And this is the EASIER solution, versus installing Windows on the local drive just to update the firmware.

"Suck" is indeed the word.

There's a firmware update for the card readers!? I thought they only had drivers? I've looked all over the pages for my laptop models and I see nothing about firmware for the card readers (and dell tech support knows nothing about this either). Can you share what you mean?

The card reader firmware is bundled into the Control Point package. I've had good luck with smart cards on Dell systems when the correct driver is installed. Device Manager should show a Broadcom smart card device as opposed to the generic Windows device. Using the E6410 as an example, here's the driver you'd need: =latitude-e6410&driv...

Have anyone work with Dell Data Security (Security Management Server 9.10) ? What I am trying to do is having the smartcard to preboot authenticate the laptop, then user login Windows with their AD credential. As the laptops are share devices, so any authorise user with authorise smart card can login. My question is if each user has a different smartcard, how can the laptop know if the card is valid if it has not seen that card before ?

I'm reading all these smartcard issues and wondering if it is related to Power Management. On my Broadcom Usbccid Smartcard Reader (WUDF) Properties there is a Power Management tab that has a check box for "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". With admin rights I have turned that off and am now trying to figure out where that is saved so that I could use a GPO or script to control all of our systems.

Ive always been curious if you can use the smartcard reader on laptops like Dell Latitudes and such to insert a payment card in and use some POS software to process it. If I put a card in there Windows recognizes a card as "Unknown SmartCard" in device manager. I usually carry a laptop with such a device and always thought it would be cool to do it this way!

This means you can log into your computer by both tapping a smart card to the icon and typing your password, offering added security. This is often used in corporate environments where high security is required.

I have one of the above named keyboards, and I want to modify it to be more useful. The three keys beneath the reader I would like to change the internal keyboard layout, rather than relying on crappy operating system controls.

The Dell SK Smart Card Reader Keyboard is a fairly expensive keyboard from Dell that contains a smart card reader. Now, a smart card is not the same thing as a USB key or portable storage device: instead, it is used to encrypt data. Some credit and debit cards have a smart card built into them, so that payments can be used without swiping the card. Smart cards are a security standard in Europe, preventing theft and fraud on debit and credit cards, and the smart card reader built into this keyboard allows for banking transactions, ID systems, secure logons, or other similar functions.

This keyboard is great if smart cards are a necessity for the computing jobs that the computer it is attached to performs. However, besides the smart card reader, it has no other added features that enhance its performance. In essence, the main selling point for this keyboard is the smart card reader.

This article focuses on the steps required to successfully start using your smart card on ChromeOS on your personal, unmanaged device. If you are an admin and wish to deploy smart cards on managed devices across your organization, then please refer to Deploy smart cards on ChromeOS.

The Smart Card Connector app provides Chromebooks with PCSC support. This PCSC API can then be used by other applications such as smart card middleware and Citrix to provide functionality on top e.g. browser integration and virtual session redirection. You can install the app by going to the entry on the Chrome Web Store and clicking Add to Chrome.

In addition to the connector, you need to install the proper middleware app that can communicate with smart cards and offer client certificates that can authenticate you to HTTPS websites. Google has partnered with Drivelock to bring support for a wide range of cards and profiles, including PIV and CAC, onto ChromeOS. You can install the app by going to the entry on the Chrome Web Store and clicking on Install.

Apps like Citrix and Drivelock will need to contact the Smart Card Connector to communicate with your cards and readers. As cards and readers contain sensitive user information, the connector app will show users a permission dialog before granting access to any app. If you see a permission dialog prompted by a third party app you trust, click on ALLOW to move on.

Firmware 1.01 is bogus. The time request sent by the card is not forwarded by the reader to the host.

Use CCID driver version 1.4.34 or more. The reader does not support USB suspend and will consume more power than needed.

Known problems/limitations:

- Does not support minimum PIN length (wPINMaxExtraDigit) lower than 4

- Does not support maximum PIN length (wPINMaxExtraDigit) greater than 8

- Does send a VERIFY PIN command with an empty PIN to get the number of remaining trials. This may be problematic with some smart cards like the Belgian eID card that does not support this and will decrement the counter ff782bc1db
