The Mooltipass Open Source Hardware Authentication Ecosystem

Abstract:

The Mooltipass project is a completely open-source ecosystem aimed at providing hardware-based authentication solutions. Its latest family member, the Mooltipass Mini BLE, features a dual microcontroller architecture aimed at separating the communications and security domains, together with an OLED screen and dedicated flash memories for credentials and graphics storage. The Mooltipass project is an ongoing 7-year adventure with contributors from around the globe. It has produced 3 hardware devices, multiple browser extensions, a cross-platform user interface and software daemon, an SSH agent and a python library.
