### x509 Certificate Authentication
Outscale API now supports x509 Client certificate authentication, in addition of traditional AK/SK HMAC based auth.
This adds an additional layer of security, especially desirable on SecNumCloud compliant regions (cloudgouv-eu-west-1).
You can set this certificates either by environment variables or by the static credentials inside the packer configuration file.
#### Environment variables
```bash
export OUTSCALE_X509CERT="the/path/to/your/x509cert"
export OUTSCALE_X509KEY="the/path/to/your/x509key"
```
#### Static Credentials
```json
{
"x509_cert_path": "the/path/to/your/x509cert",
"x509_key_path": "the/path/to/your/x509key",
"region": "cloudgouv-eu-west-1",
"type": "osc-bsu",
}
```
