SConnect Host 2.13

SConnect Host is a lightweight background service that securely bridges web or desktop applications to local system resources. It enables tasks such as smart card authentication, digital signing, printing, and file exchange by providing a controlled, native connection to devices and files without exposing the broader system to risk.

Key features:

• Secure native bridge between applications and local hardware or files
• Permission-based access with whitelisting of allowed apps and actions
• Works with modern browsers via native messaging where supported
• Low resource usage; runs quietly in the background
• Centralized configuration, logging, and policy controls for administrators
• Auto-update and silent deployment options for enterprise environments
• Proxy and corporate network compatibility
• Cross-platform availability may be offered (Windows, macOS, Linux)

Typical use cases:

• Smart card login and e-signature workflows
• Enabling enterprise or government portals to interact with scanners, printers, or USB tokens
• Secure file transfer between a web application and the local machine

Privacy and security:

• Least-privilege design that exposes only explicitly permitted capabilities
• No data is shared with third parties beyond what the integrated application requires
• Auditing and opt-out controls available for administrators
