3. What is a Smart Card?
 A smart card, chip card, or integrated
circuit card (ICC) is any pocket-sized
card with embedded integrated
circuits.
 A smart card is a device that includes
an embedded integrated circuit that
can be either a secure microcontroller
or equivalent intelligence with internal
memory or a memory chip alone.
 The card connects to a reader with

4. Continuation,,
 In smart Card System we have the
Inbuilt Memory Space to Store Data
Securely.
 Smart cards have unique ability to
store large amounts of data to carry
out their own on-card functions and to
interact intelligently with a smart card
reader.
 It is available in a variety of form
factors, including plastic cards, key
fobs, watches, subscriber identification
modules used in GSM mobile phones,

5. Design:
 A Smart Card Contains a credit card like
simple plastic card. Instead of the Thin
Magnetic Strip in Credit Cards it has a
golden pad(microprocessor).
 Its Dimension Is 85.60mm by 53.98 mm
(3.370 in × 2.125 in).
 Communicates with external services via
card-reading devices, such as ticket
readers, ATMs, DIP reader, etc.

6. Types of Smart Cards:
Contact Smart Card:
A contact smart card must be inserted
into a smart card reader with a direct connection to a
conductive contact plate on the surface of the card
(typically gold plated). Transmission of commands,
data, and card status takes place over these physical
contact points.
Contactless Smart Card:
A contactless card requires only close
proximity to a reader. Both the reader and the card
have antennae, and the two communicate using radio
frequencies (RF) over this contactless link. Most
contactless cards also derive power for the internal
chip from this electromagnetic signal.

7. Comparison:
 Memory Cards:
Straight Memory
Capacity of 3Kb- Few Mb
 Stored Value
Memory(They simply Store
data and no Processing
Involved)
 Memory Cards:

9. Widely Used In:
First It was used In European Countries and
nowadays its being Widely used in many American
Countries..

10. Advantages:
Easy to use.
Individuals gain increased
convenience.
Multiple tasks can be done by a single
card.
An important key in E-governance.
Enhanced security.
A handsome way to deal with the
things.

11. Why Smart Card?
Improve the convenience and security of
any transaction.
Provide tamper-proof storage of user and
account identity.
Provide vital components of system
security.
Protect against a full range of security
threats .

12. Applications:
 Financial
 > As ATM cards, Fuel cards, SIMs.
 > As electronic wallet.
 Identification (Dude! Be Smart.)
 Public Transit.
 Educational Institutes.
 > Tracking Student attendance.
 > As an electronic purse to pay various bills.
 > Access control of some buildings.
 In healthcare.

13. Security With Smart Card:
Contains a tamper-resistant security system (for
example a secure crypto processor and a secure file system) and
provides security services (e.g., protects in-memory
information).
Managed by an administration system which securely
interchanges information and configuration settings with
the card, controlling card blacklisting and application-data
updates.
The standard security goals like
 Authentication
 Password
 Confidentiality
 Integrity, can easily be provided by using smart cards..

14. Problems:
High probability for damage of card.
Card is small, less weight and thus
there is high possibility for card lost.
Malware can break smart card
security model.
Lack of standards for functionality &
security.
