The Trust1Connector API v3 exposes a secure REST API on the client device. Trust1Team has created a t1c.t1t.io DNS entry (or customer-specific DNS entry) that points to 127.0.0.1 in order to facilitate SSL communication. This means that if the customer infrastructure uses a proxy for all network traffic, an exemption must be made for t1c.t1t.io to always point to the origin device's loopback address. The same holds true for the localhost domain name, this should redirect to 127.0.0.1 on the user's local system, not the localhost of the proxy server.
If no exemption is made and https://t1c.t1t.io is handled by a proxy, it will redirect to 127.0.0.1 IP of the proxy server instead of the local machine, and the Trust1Connector API will be unreachable.
The reserved domain from Trust1Team (t1c.t1t.io) has been registered with DNSSEC on the aforementioned URI. When a PARTNER uses its own DNS, we strongly recommend applying DNSSEC on the domain used in production.
Some (corporate) networks have a policy that disables the ability to bind a domain to a local network IP. The Trust1Connector relies on this for t1c.t1t.io which resolves in to 127.0.0.1 which is a local ip for localhost
If DNS rebind protection is enabled it is unable to use t1c.t1t.io for connection towards the Trust1Connector because the network does not allow this Domain to be a local ip-address.
To resolve the issue either DNS rebind protection can be disabled or you can whitelist the domain t1c.t1t.io to allow this domain.
Applications that want to make use of the Trust1Connector will be run from a specific domain. This means that the Trust1Connector needs to know that certain domains/applications want to make use of the Trust1Connector's functionality.
For these applications to gain access to the Trust1Connectors API we need to whitelist the domain in whats called the cors list. This list contains all the accepted domains that can make use of the Trust1Connector.
If you want to use the Trust1Connector on a specific domain, please contact our support team to add this domain to the cors list.
In order to correctly function, the Trust1Connector API must be able to connect to its configured Distribution Service. You must allow REST traffic to the following URLs (if applicable):
Acceptance: https://acc-ds.t1t.io
Production: https://ds.t1t.io
A partner can opt for its own Distribution server, whereas the URIs mentioned above, will be defined by the hosting party.
The option of working without Distribution Service is also possible. You can find all the possibilities to run the Trust1Connector here
In some cases (environments) the Domain acc-ds.t1t.io or ds.t1t.io are not accessable. If this is because the domain cannot be resolved we do recommend to either ask the network/system administrator to make sure that those domains can be resolved on the network. Or changing the DNS server to the google DNS (8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4), this has solved the issue for some of our customers.
Keep in mind sizes can vary a bit depending on the Operating system and the environment (develop, acceptance, production)
Trust1Connector installer is about 20Mb in size. The installed size comes to 40-50Mb.
This includes the Trust1Connector API, Registry and Sandbox.

The increased size over windows mainly comes to the way MacOS handles dialogs. These are distributed with the Trust1Connector as seperate binaries.
All endpoints of the Trust1Connector API are secured and require a JWT to access. To obtain a token, an API key must be exchanged.
This API key must be requested from TRUST1TEAM, or created by the customer if they are hosting their own Distribution Service. The API key must never be used in a front-end application (where the API key can be compromised). The API key is needed to exchange the token, using a Distribution Server, resulting in a short-lived Json Web Token.
A PARTNER can decide to distribute a version without the use of a JWT. In those cases, the liability of the security flow resides completely in the context of the web application, thus Trust1Team can not guarantee the security context where the Trust1Connector is integrated upon.
Trust1Connector support two operating systems for all tokens, Linux (Debian/Ubuntu) for PKCS11 tokens; On request, a Google Chromebook can be supported depending on the deployment or target installer.
MacOS 11.x or higher
X86 architecture
M1/M2/ARM architecture
Windows 810 or higher
Trust1Team support Windows/Mac OSX OS families where lifecycle support is guaranteed from the Vendor of the Operating System. The moment the OS version has been marked as ‘end of life’, Trust1Team can not guarantee the functionality anymore.
When PARTNERS are in need to support an older version or keeping the support running on the level of Trust1Team, no guarantees can be made. Trust1Team can setup a custom project, on demand of the PARTNER. Those requirements, changes or other adaptations needed, are not covered in the Trust1Connector license fee.

macOS 14 (Sonoma) has issues at the moment with usblib and CCID. A future patch will fix the card reader issues; Updates will be come avaible when a patch is released
To run in user-space on Windows 8.1 or higher some components have to be set on the operating system
Below you can find a list of all registry keys that will be created for the working of the Trust1Connector, All these keys are added to HKCU
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Trust1Team\Trust1Connector
Since 3.5.x no more cookies are used.
The Trust1Connector is browser agnostic so it does not matter what browser is being used as long as it support HTTP communication (HTTP 1.1) (which should all of them).
Version wise we do recommend to use the latest versions of your browser for security reasons but the versions below is was we accept as a minimum
Chrome >80
Firefox >75
Edge 88 or higher
IE 11 (End of Life is June 15 2022)
All other browsers. As recent as possible
