3 Full Spectrum Security IC Knowledge Security Strong cryptology expertise Leading edge security memories/controllers Strong security features (sensor protection, shielding layers,...) International certification Non Volatile Memories Leading edge technology (0.22µ) Highest quality embedded memory in the market (EEPROM) Page 3

4 What Makes a Card Smart Intelligence of the credential chip Memory: Store unique serial number and support locking of memory to allow write access only with password protection Memory + Wired logic: Use dedicated, fixed circuitry for authentication by readers Microcontroller: Encryption/authentication supported in software/ firmware Page 4 Level of card integration Hybrid: Contain multiple technologies to support existing and emerging authentication methods Dual-interface: Single-chip featuring both contact and contactless interface Hybrid/Dual-interface: Pathway to the true multi-application card

5 Security Measures Threats: Unauthorized access and/or altering of data Unwanted identification/authentication Duplication or simulation of cards Protection: Cryptography to protect against unauthorized access to data Card design and microcontroller design, including separation of highlysecure data via hardware firewalls System design to balance multiple levels of authentication with user convenience Page 5

12 Security Verification and U.S. Standards Common Criteria standard (ISO/IEC 15408) specifies security requirement framework verified by independent labs ISO/IEC standard contactless systems using microcontroller technology meet Common Criteria standards FIPS140-2 defines cryptographic security requirements for systems used by U.S. government and affiliated agencies No contactless technology certified today and FIPS certification plans are not published at this time Page 12 Smart Card Interoperability Specification (GSC-IS) Will define interoperability of contactless and contact technologies through NIST

13 Evolution to Contactless Cards Cards/readers requiring direct physical contact lack flexibility in many applications Dual Interface addresses need for user convenience with security Single chip on card supports access and data I/O via a contact port or RF signal Implementation can be transparent to end user System designs balance convenience with security by incorporating a combination of contact and contactless reader technologies Multi-interface and multi-protocol readers increasingly cost-effective High-security poitns (facilities, computer networks) can remain accessible only through contact port readers, with additional second/third level authentication as needed Page 13
