Security - Expansion Card (e.g. Nitrokey)

Creators & Developers Expansion Card

I’d love to see a security-card, such as the Nitrokey, as an Expansion Card.

Is there anything existing? Eventually Framework could put a Nitrokey inside an expansion card. (Might be this could be an interesting partnership).

I don’t have the option to print a case, but would like to try something like that.

You might be able to sneak the smaller NFC versions into a DongleHider+ with some clever soldering. Or, as you allude to, just print a case with a hole for the USB-C plug to stick out and maybe some internal bracketing to hold everything in-place.

Looks interesting. A Nitrokey Mini could fit inside. But you have to touch the Nitrokey to unlock it for FIDO2-actions, which could be a bit difficult if completely buid inside.

I’ll have a look on this, thanks.

Hi @Rightaway I’ve shared your request with the internal teams.

A modified Expansion Card could easily fit something like:

The port would just need to be recessed just right so the outside of the expansion card could be touched to activate the key.

I know a guy who is incredible at 3D printing! (@XenoCow rocks)

This key is so small, you might just be able to use some sandpaper to make the end flush with the USBA port:
