5) Operating multiple storage devices with a single smart card
To accomplish this multiple HS256 S3 have to be initialized with identical cryptographic
keys. It is possible to generate cryptographic keys for one smart card which allows the
access to several diffrent hard drives. It offers the advantage that one employee does not
know varios numeric codes for the diffrent drives which he/she has an access for. It is
only one PIN necessary. Even if the data are sent frequently, it provides a great solution
for every time the data are dispatched and an other diffrent HS256 S3 can be used. A
Waiting for the return of personalies HS256 S3 is unnecessary.
6) Deleting the cryptographic keys
The user has the possibility to delete the key without attracting attention in dangerous
situations, given that he/she knows the PIN. In order to do this three additional buttons
must be pressed. (Chapter 4.2)
Now the access to the data is impossible with this smart card and therefore also for the
user.
Provided the smart card PIN is unknown, the cryptographic keys are also deleted by
entering the 8-digit PIN wrong 8 times.
