How to register PKCS11 library in Google Chrome on Windows?

Question

How can I register the PKCS11 library in Google Chrome when I use a Gemalto smardcard reader?

Answer 1

Chrome does not provide a mechanism to specify a PKCS#11 provider, only Firefox does.

You can do client authentication but only with soft certs or smart cards on Windows via CryptoAPI and minidrivers/csps.

Here is a link on using soft certs: https://support.quovadisglobal.com/kb/a422/how-do-i-set-up-client-authentication-for-google-chrome-on-linux.aspx
