Microprocessor Smart Card
Microprocessor smart cards are the ultimate multitasking card technology. The microprocessor embedded in the card allows it to store and manipulate data like a computer. It can store and handle a variety of information all in one card, such as electronic cash, travel tickets, access privileges, telephone credits, and transaction records among other things.
Out of all the smart cards available, this one has the highest level of data security. Data on microprocessor cards is encrypted and can only be accessed by systems with the proper keys.
The processing and storage capacity, plus the data security make these smart cards ideal for high profile system applications. In China, the microprocessor IC card has been approved by the People's Bank of China and the Office of State Commercial Cryptography Administration to replace traditional social security cards, bank cards, and ID cards.
Card Cube Smart Technology provides single-interface and dual-interface cards which implement contactless and contact interface. This means that they can be read remotely via radio frequency as well as by physically inserting the card into a reader. The same information can be accessed by using either method. The contact interface card is built to ISO/IEC 7816 standards, while the contactless interface complies to ISO/IEC 14443 requirements.
