General iOS CAC authentication

[sketchy]

Any idea if apple is working on CAC authentication for iOS devices? It would make a project much easier if there was anything in the works.

For DoD CACs?

There is a product out there, works fairly well but be aware quite a few DoD sites require full JAVA or are IE specific so those don't work.

Good solid product, well supported thus far but pricey....

Actually, you can change you User Agent for sites that require Internet Explorer. This was a feature request I made back when it was version 1.0. Figured since desktop Safari and many third party mobile browsers could do it, why not Pkard.

Convenience comes at a cost but I've had the 30-pin connector since it first came out years ago and it still works on my 6+ using an adapter. Mainly use it for webmail.
