Create a compatible SmartCard certificate
In this Tutorial, we will use a self-signed certificate to encrypt the disk with BitLocker, but you can also use a SmartCard Certificate signed by a Certificate Authority, but you have to make sure it is supported by BitLocker. Please go to Microsoft Website to get more information about the requirements for a compatible BitLocker certificate.

SmartCard: is any pocket-sized card with embedded integrated circuits. There are two broad categories of ICCs. Memory cards contain only non-volatile memory storage components, and perhaps dedicated security logic. Microprocessor cards contain volatile memory and microprocessor components.
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a set of hardware, software, people, policies, and procedures needed to create, manage, distribute, use, store, and revoke digital certificates.
Microsoft Cryptography API, MS-CAPI is an application programming interface included with Microsoft Windows operating systems that provides services to enable developers to secure Windows-based applications using cryptography.
PKCS refers to a group of public-key cryptography standards devised and published by RSA Security.
