CAC for Mac
For government and military employees, your Common Access Card (CAC) is your link to secure computers and networked resources. It features an encrypted form of credential on a smart chip located on the card.
Thursby Software has updated ADmitMac for CAC, which securely integrates Macs with the CAC architecture. ADmitMac authorizes users for a particular workstation, allows them access to network resources using secure SMB connections, and locks the workstation when the CAC is removed.
On the server side, ADmitMac works with Mac OS X Workgroup Manager to fully support Managed Desktop environments with no schema changes. It also allows for full printer sharing.
The software requires a compatible CAC reader, and Mac OS X 10.4. The software is $199, and volume discounts are available.
Update: The folks behind CAC have let us know a significant number of changes have taken place in the past three years. We will be getting a new update on this shortly.
