Hi list,
The solution that Rodrigo have said for IE named Web Sign-On (WSO) is not an
aunthentic SSO, simply is a way to manage identities via smart chip into
Aladdin Security Token assign an user/password to each http form identifying
the form and URL
The SSO is possible with eToken PRO from Aladdin, IMHO is a good choice, but
you must think in crytoflex from Schlumberger SmartCards Division (Axalto now!)
is an historic reference, and others like ActiveCard for instance.
At time to make an election, you must to think in the USB security token
integration possibilities, it must be able to integrated with other
crypto-aplication such as PGP Enterprise, Entrust modules, Utimaco natively or
via PKCS#11.
Is very important to make a good choose, assure that the Cryptographic Service
Provider (or CSP) is supported natively from your Certification Authority (or
CA).
Beside is important known the key type and its lenght, for example, in the
Aladdin eToken PRO only accept RSA Keys with a lenght of 1024.
Is possible integrate eToken PRO in a GNU/Linux enviroment, SUN Solaris, *BSD
... Cisco Systems have choosen this solution too to two factor authentication
to upgrade IOS and console authentication recently.
Please, visit the M.U.S.C.L.E for more info and diferent drivers for SC (there
are a lot of them):

Asunto: Re: Single Sign On with USB Tokens
eToken from Aladdin will do web SSO on IExplorer (Windows only, I
think).
