Enable Smart Card access on your Chromebook
Smart Card Connector Application
Users will be shown a permission dialog when third party apps attempt to connect to the Smart Card Connector. Granting these apps permission will provide these third parties access to your personal information such as the certificates on the smart card. It is recommended to grant permission only to third party apps you trust.
