YubiKey Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Attestation - with the TameMyCerts Policy Module for Microsoft Active Directory Certificate Services (ADCS)
Since the recently released version 1.7, the TameMyCerts Policy Module for Microsoft Active Directory Certificate Services supports Personal Identity Verification (PIV) attestation for YubiKeys.
A YubiKey is a compact security token that can be used, among other things, like a smart card for the secure storage and use of certificates and can therefore also be used for passwordless logon to Active Directory environments.
This cool function was developed by Oscar Virot and integrated into TameMyCerts. This makes it possible to provide cryptographic proof when issuing certificates and thus ensure that a key pair is actually generated with a YubiKey and secured by it and cannot be exported.
This can be particularly helpful in complying with the NIS2 directive if companies decide to use certificates as a second factor for logon with security-critical accounts in Active Directory.
