I'd like to be able to sign (and encrypt) arbitrary data using the key
on my NASA PIV card.
Is this possible using the built-in software somehow? I was looking at
the command-line tool "security"; it seems I might be able to export the
key from the card (and I suppose use 'openssl' from there?) However,
that doesn't seem like the most secure option -- I'd like to leave the
key on the card where it belongs, if possible.
My objective here is to create a signed file/digest that can be verified
on a remote client using my public key and the command-line openssl client.
