Smart Card Authentication

0

Is it possible to implement Smart Card authentication in an EC2 instance? I would like to be able to use hardware tokens for access to the server via SSH. I know it can be done on bare metal, but is there a way to allow the EC2 instance to read from the USB device connected to my local computer. The closest solution I have found involves using Putty CaC to generate ssh keys, but that is not really integrated at the OS level.

Hi, You may want to follow those guidelines to use MFA via EC2 instances: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/startups/securing-ssh-to-amazon-ec2-linux-hosts/

Hope it helps!

  • Didier, this will answer some of the requirement. The customer would really like for the solution to be PKI based so that revocation lists etc can be used.
