Smart Card Setup Overview

The setup for PKI and smart cards is the most involved out all of the authentication methods. This setup and configuration requires an Active Directory Certificate Service (Certificate Authority—"CA") if you do not already have one installed in your environment and can also use a Sub-CA (usually best practice).

Overview

1. Active Directory Service Account Setup
2. Certificate Authority Configuration
3. IIS Configuration for PKI
4. Admin Portal Setup for PKI
5. Create A Smart Card Certificate Set

Once all of the steps have been completed, you can begin enrolling smart cards to users.
