Securely in the Browser, and not directly accessible by js, just like a TMP chip or a smartcard. Could that be a solution?
- maaku 13y agoPotentially, yes. But now we're back to technology/software which doesn't yet exist. If you create it I would use it, though.
- tomjen3 13y agoDoesn't most computers have TMP chips, which are perfectly capable of storing and generating private keys so the browser doesn't have acccess to them.
- jlgaddis 13y agoInside the TPM would be a great place to store the private key, simply because it cannot be extracted. Of course, that introduces a new problem: securely backing up the private key.
