SECURITY This file discusses security related issues with pcsc-lite and how to handle them. Sometimes it is dangerous to run daemons under a root account. If there is a chance to exploit a buffer overflow you can protect sensitive information by running it under a different account. It might be useful to create another user with hardware priveledges and run pcscd as that user. Be sure this user can manipulate the server sockets. Application suggestions: Make sure you Disconnect when you are not using the reader. Also be sure to ReleaseContext before exiting your program.
