Thank you!

I would like to do some additional research, but my first impression is NO.

What is the smart card being used to authenticate to? I have seen smart cards for internal authentication (for accessing the OS locally), but not sure I have seen where a smart card is supported for GP. More information is needed. Thanks.

There are... governmental entities... that use brivo/mocha smart cards for GP auth. My understanding is it's a custom registry check that changes on when the card is inserted or not. Have your account SE engage the federal team, I've heard this use case a few times but agree, more information is needed.
