Smart cards
✎The term smart card, which refers to both smart cards and
Java™ Cards, will be used throughout this guide.
A smart card is a credit card–sized accessory that carries a
microchip containing memory and a microprocessor. Like
personal computers, smart cards have an operating system to
manage input and output, and they include security features
to protect against tampering. Industry-standard smart cards are
used with the smart card reader.
A personal identification number (PIN) is needed to gain access
to the contents of the microchip. For more information about
smart card security features, refer to Help and Support.
