manages and controls access to a smart card inserted into a smart card reader attached to the computer The smart card subsystem is based on personal computer/smart card (PC/SC) consortium standards and consists of the following components
"Plastic cards with an embedded integrated circuit chip containing memory and microprocessor "
A plastic card containing a computer chip that holds large amounts of information, performs some processing and is tamper resistant Smart cards could create and store private signing keys or be used for other essential electronic commerce tasks
a plastic card containing a microprocessor that enables the holder to perform operations requiring data that is stored in the microprocessor; typically used to perform financial transactions
A plastic card containing a computer chip with memory and CPU capabilities Such a card may be used for identification, to store information or financial amounts, or other forms of data Also called an integrated circuit card or a chip card
-A device that is often the same size as a credit card but that is "smart" enough to hold its own data and applications and do its own processing Smart cards, which are popular in Europe but have never really taken off in the United States, can be used to store personal information, hold digital cash or prove identity They are often contrasted with "dumb" cards that have magnetic strips or barcodes and rely more heavily on networks
Smart cards have an embedded computer circuit that contains either a memory chip or a microprocessor chip There are several types of smart cards: Memory, Contact, Contactless, Hybrid (Twin), Combi (Dual Interface), Proximity and Vicinity
A plastic card resembling traditional credit or debit cards that contains a computer chip; the chip is capable of storing significantly more information than a magnetic stripe
A credit card-like device capable of storing and transferring information regarding the card's user to communications devices such as hand-held and car phones, notebook computers, and personal digital assistants This information could include how the user would like their phone calls handled, method of payment, and the user's personal number
A small electronic device, approximately the size of a credit card, that contains an embedded integrated circuit Used for such tasks as storing medical records, storing digital cash, and generating network IDs
An electronic information carrier system that uses plastic cards, about the size of a credit card, with an imbedded integrated circuit that stores and processes information
A credit-type card that electronically stores account information in the card itself
Sometimes referred to as a chip card is a card containing an integrated circuit that gives it a limited amount of "intelligence" and memory Smart cards are being used in a variety of ways including identification and to encode information such as a persons medical history
A plastic card containing a computer chip that can store electronic "money " Unlike a credit card, a smart card can only spend out the dollar amount its owner has already put into the card account It's similar in function to a prepaid calling card but is available for all purchases
A credit card with a built-in microprocessor and memory used for identification or financial transactions When inserted into a reader, it transfers data to and from a central computer It is more secure than a magnetic stripe card and can be programmed to self-destruct if the wrong password is entered too many times
A card, similar to a payment or credit card, that contains a computer chip and memory that can store a digital ID, account information, medical data and so on
a smart card is a plastic card the size of a credit card It contains a microchip that can be used to store data Smart cards have a number of uses and potential uses Amongst other things, they may be used to make payments or to store personal informati
A credit card sized plastic card with an embedded microchip The chip can be "recharged" with funds The store of value on the card is debited as a transaction is made The card can also store other ID information such as, health care details and security information
Smart cards, sometimes called chip cards, contain a computer chip embedded in the plastic Where a typical credit card's magnetic stripe can hold only a few dozen characters, smart cards are now available with 16K of memory When read by a special terminals, the cards can perform a number of functions or access data stored in the chip These cards can be used as cash cards or as credit cards with a preset credit limit, or used as ID cards with stored-in passwords While fairly common in Europe, the United States has been slower to embrace them -- Americans are happy with their ATMs and POS terminals, so merchants haven't seen the need to make the expensive switch to smart card terminals
magnetic card containing a mini-processor and memory (performs various computerized actions such as: credit card, electronic wallet, etc.)
An electronic device, similar in size to a credit card, that can store data and programs while enhancing security Applications include identification, mass transit, and banking
A smart card is a plastic card which looks like a credit card and can store and process computer data. A plastic card containing a computer chip and enabling the holder to purchase goods and services, enter restricted areas, access medical, financial, or other records, or perform other operations requiring data stored on the chip. a small plastic card with an electronic part that records and remembers information
A card, not much bigger than a credit card, that contains a computer chip and is used to store or process information
credit card type card which has an embedded computer chip that updates your account values with each use
A payment card that electronically stores account information utilizing chip technology rather than a magnetic stripe
A portable, updatable card that can be used to store personal identification, medical history and insurance information Because it has its own microprocessing chip, a smart card can store thousands more bits of information than a magnetic stripe card, although it requires a special card-reading device
A card the size of a credit card, which holds a microprocessor that stores information
