Hello #Blind and #VisuallyImpaired community!
I'm having trouble signing PDF documents with a digital certificate using my #screenreader (NVDA on Windows). I can do it in Adobe Reader but it's quite cumbersome and requires sighted assistance.
Does anyone have a more accessible workflow or software recommendation for signing PDFs with a digital certificate using the keyboard and a screen reader? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Could you please #Boost this so it reaches more people? Thank you in advance! #Accessibility #NVDA #PDF #DigitalSignature #AssistiveTechnology @NVAccess

Any recommendations?

With the release of `nethsm-cli` 0.6.0 it is now possible to issue signatures for signing requests!

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm-cli/0.6.0

Signing requests for files can be created using `signstar-request-signature` (see https://chaos.social/@dvzrv/113646761365294969).

With the release 0.4.0 of the nethsm-cli crate we have made the #CLI parsing more robust!

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm-cli/0.4.0

The nethsm executable continues to shape up as a versatile tool for interfacing with #Nitrokey #NetHSM (virtual or hardware) for generic operations.

The #nethsm crate has just been released in version 0.7.0.

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm/0.7.0

In this version we added several improvements for the use with #OpenPGP (such as updating to the latest #rPGP) and added integration for validated key setups.

We have just released the first version of the nethsm-tests crate

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm-tests/0.1.0

This library helps to test against #NetHSM #containers and has been split out of the nethsm crate.

My talk "Boring Infrastructure: Building a secure signing environment" from #asg2024 is online:

We just released version 0.3.0 of the nethsm-cli #RustLang #crate.

In this release of the `nethsm` #CLI we have added improvements ensuring the robustness of its use when handling keys and improved documentation for the use of namespaces.

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm-cli/0.3.0

We have just released version 0.6.0 of the nethsm #RustLang library #crate

This release focuses on making the interface more robust using dedicated types for key IDs, adding validation of bit lengths for block cipher and #RSA keys and requiring unsigned integers for values that can not be negative (such as bit lengths or ports).

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm/0.6.0

We have just released version 0.2.2 of the nethsm-cli #crate

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm-cli/0.2.2

With this release the `nethsm` #CLI saw improvements for the restoring from backup and switched to the common nethsm-config crate for configuration handling.

We have just released version 0.5.0 of the #NetHSM library #crate

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm/0.5.0

This release contains improvements to the #OpenPGP support, as well as changes for more recent versions of the library's dependencies.

We have just released version 0.2.0 of the nethsm-cli #RustLang #crate.
This executable allows for easy integration with @nitrokey #NetHSM devices (and containers).

With this release we have added #namespace and #OpenPGP support!
Also, users can now rely on shell completion and man pages!

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm-cli/0.2.0

Thanks to @wiktor for working out #OpenPGP support using #rPGP!

We have just released version 0.4.0 of the #nethsm #RustLang #crate.
This library allows for easy integration with @nitrokey #NetHSM devices (and containers).

With this release we have added #namespace and #OpenPGP support!
Additionally, large parts of the documentation have been improved.

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm/0.4.0

Thanks to @wiktor for working out #OpenPGP support using #rPGP!

I just released version 0.1.0 (the very first ) of the nethsm-cli #crate.
This #RustLang application serves as #CLI to #NitroKey #NetHSM (or the provided testing container).

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm-cli/0.1.0

The `nethsm` application allows users to configure and administrate devices, create cryptographic keys and users, digitally #sign, #encrypt and #decrypt messages, generate random bytes and much more (see examples in the project README).

I just released version 0.3.0 of the nethsm #crate, a high level #RustLang library to interact with the #NitroKey #NetHSM.

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm

This version focuses on many quality of life improvements, #documentation extensions and safer handling of passphrases.
