Smart Card Technology: The Right Choice for REAL ID | 2008-01-15 | Smart Card Alliance |
| The privacy of a citizen's personal information endures only as long as security protections are in place to prevent access to, or tampering with, that information. Unlike other identification technologies, smart cards can implement a personal firewall for an individual's data, releasing only the information required and only when it is required. The card's unique ability to verify the authority of the reader and the card's strong security at both the card and data level make the smart card an excellent guardian of a cardholder's personal information. Unlike other forms of identification (such as a printed driver's license), a smart card does not reveal all of an individual's personal information when it is presented.

A quick look at print authentication | 2007-09-01 | Hewlett-Packard (HP) |
| When security threats try to worm their way into your enterprise through network printers, you can use print authentication to make it tough for them to succeed. As this new HP white paper explains, print authentication is a cost-effective, relatively non-disruptive means of verifying that the people who want access to network printers are who they say they are -- and that they have the access privileges they claim they do. Read it to learn about the three types of print authentication and how you can use authentication to control access to functionality, sensitive information, and data.

Improving Consumers' Contactless Payment Experience | 2007-07-01 | Texas Instruments |
| Contactless cards are a key technology for improving the consumer experience for retail transactions. Both computational speed and RF sensitivity are factored into the consumer's perceived transaction time. So a balance between speed and energy efficiency (a.k.a. sensitivity) is required in the chip design. The sensitivity of the contactless card is a more important metric than the computational speed, but the implementation of both translates into a better, overall user experience. Implementing a highly sensitive solution equates to a larger read zone and provides more time for the contactless card and the reader to complete a transaction while the card is in motion. The larger read zone means there is less hunting for the sweet spot on the reader.

Digital Identities and the Promise of the Technology Trio: PKI, Smart Cards, and Biometrics | 2007-05-30 | Science Publications |
| This paper looks at one of the evolving crimes of the digital age; identity theft. It argues and explains that if three key technologies were implemented together namely biometrics, smart cards, and PKI, then they can deliver a robust and trusted identification and authentication infrastructure. The paper concludes that such infrastructure may provide the foundation for e-government and ecommerce initiatives as it addresses the need for strong user authentication of virtual identities.

An Application Framework for Efficient, Reliable and Secure Access to Memory Spot | 2007-04-18 | Hewlett-Packard (HP) |
| Memory Spot is a microchip developed by HP Labs at Bristol. Compared to Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) devices, Smart Cards and other Near-Field Communication (NFC) devices, this chip provides much larger storage capacity, faster data transfer rate, and smaller physical dimensions. The chip is normally passive and is energized by an external reader/writer over the Radio Frequency (RF) channel. The same RF channel enables data communication between the reader/writer and the powered chip. Memory spot potentially opens up a wide range of new consumer-oriented and enterprise service-oriented applications. This paper presents an application framework to help develop these memory spot related applications, by providing common functionalities across different applications, such as data synchronization, application management and application-device interaction.

Mobile Marketing based on ToruCa | 2007-04-01 | Research On Asia (ROA) Group |
| This white paper introduces ToruCa, an information capture service for mobile phones, developed by NTT DoCoMo, Japan's leading mobile carrier. ToruCa service is enabled through NTT DoCoMo's credit card payment platform called iD. Recently McDonald's Holdings in Japan announced that it will install iD platforms to its outlets to allow payments with mobile phones and jointly promote marketing with NTT DoCoMo using ToruCa as a marketing tool. The partnership between McDonald's and NTT DoCoMo is presented as an example in this white paper to explain about mobile marketing based on ToruCa.

Smart Card Minidriver Certification Requirements for Windows Base Cryptographic Service Provider (Base CSP) and Smart Card Key Storage Provider (KSP): Version 5.06 | 2007-02-08 | Microsoft |
| The Smart Card Base Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP) exposes the cryptographic capabilities of smart cards through the CAPI interface. The Smart Card Base CSP isolates all smart card specific cryptographic operations in the Smart Card Minidriver [CMSPEC]. Card Minidrivers execute in user-mode and are smart card specific. The Card Minidriver can also be accessed by CNG Key Storage Providers (KSPs). This is the interface through which the ECC capabilities of the Card Minidrivers are exposed. This paper outlines the requirements that a Card Minidriver that conforms to [CMSPEC] must meet in order to be certified and qualify for a Windows Logo.
