Crypto Keychain Sample

Crypto Sample App for the AirID® Smart Card Reader (enterprise-variant)

Note: The AirID® Crypto Sample app is only fully operational exclusively in combination with the AirID® smart card reader and the AirID® Central app. AirID® is a card reader which provides a secure wireless connection via Bluetooth low energy to your Android device. The AirID® Central app is a management software for your AirID® forming the basis for usage of the device.

The AirID® Crypto Sample App demonstrates the reading of the certificate, signing, encryption and decryption. After importing the smart card certificates, they are displayed and stored in a list. Use the red icons on the right side to select the preferred function.

This Sample app uses shared preferences. After selecting and connecting the AirID® device to the AirID® Central App, the AirID® is stored in shared preferences, which is accessed by the Sample App. This assumes that the connection of the AirID® device has been implemented with the AirID® Central App before using the Sample App, and that the apps have the same bundle ID.

Please note that AES-256 encryption may requires exchange of keys when switching between apps.

The Sample app supports the following cards:

Atos 4.3b

Atos 4.4

Atos 5.0

Atos 5.3

Starcos 3.0

Starcos 3.2

Crescendo C700

Compatibility

The functioning of the AirID® apps with your Android device cannot be guaranteed due to the heterogeneity of Android.

Minimum requirements for using the AirID® are the Bluetooth Low Energy functionality and an Android version from 4.4 upwards.

Furthermore, the utilized firmware version of the AirID® card reader has an impact on the stability of the Bluetooth connection. The best stability can be achieved by the latest beta release 1.2.0-18.

In case of an unstable connection of AirID® with your Android device or issues concerning the establishment of the connection, please contact us!
