[Ubuntu-be] Eid (was Re: Fingerprint authentication)

[Lucien Demeuse]

What you can do with your eid card and it is very important is to use
it with Cryptonit. With both eid and Cryptonit you can exchange your
public key (certificate) issue by the Gnupg system (for exemple
Seahorse). Indeed, the weakness of the system Gnupg lies only in the
certification of the public key to be able to be used in full safety
by a company
