FINALLY! A CAC reader that works with my Chromebook!
I've had several CAC readers over the years that have given me different levels of reliability with my Windows and Mac laptops; however, this is the first (and only) CAC reader that seems to work with my Chromebook. It was literally plug-and-play with both my Samsung Chromebook V2 and my Samsung Galaxy Chromebook. Working a lot from home now and it's nice to be able to access my restricted (.mil) sites from my Chromebook with no issues. LOVE IT!

TAA compliant as required by DoD
This is replacement for popular model on amazon that is NOT TAA compliant. This one works great. Beware of others. I tried to write negative review of the non-TAA compliant reader (not this one!) but amazon rejected because I provided a link to the approved DoD list of card readers and details of the security concerns.

Quality product worked seamlessly with a govt. issue, TAA compliant MacBook Pro.
My previous reader was much less substantial and cracked. Replaced with this model and have been very happy so far. Sturdy, yet thin/small enough in my keyboard/mouse travel pouch. Worked immediately with no setup, downloads, etc. Very happy with this purchase.
