What is Axiad Conductor OS Bridge?
Axiad Conductor OS Bridge is a software that works with the Axiad Conductor Browser Extension (our browser extension) to issue any certificate-based identity device that connects to your computer, such as:
- smart cards (for example, IDEMIA and Gemalto smart cards),
- security devices (for example, Feitian and Yubico devices), or
- TPM-bound (such as Virtual Smart Cards and Windows Hello for Business).
- You must install the Axiad Conductor OS Bridge software to use the Axiad Conductor Browser Extension, and you must install the Axiad Conductor Browser Extension if you use any of the above-mentioned devices.
