ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

 We are deeply indebted to our language

lab faculty for presenting us with this wonderful opportunity to work on this

project on SMART CARD .Thanks are due to each and every resources (Google,

Wikipedia etc) from which we have extracted valuable information in the

form of descriptions and images and last but not the least our consistent

collaboration and efforts as a group without which this project could never

have been completed.

What is Smart Card ?

A smart card, chip card, or integrated circuit card (ICC), is any pocket-sized card with embedded integrated circuits. A smart card or microprocessor cards contain volatile memory and microprocessor components. The card is made of plastic, generally polyvinyl chloride, but sometimes acrylonitrile butadiene styrene or polycarbonate.

A smart card is essentially a “computer on a card.” Like modern PCs or laptops, smartcards are fully programmable, and able to read, write, store, update and process information. Smart cards today are commonly used with personal computers, point-of-sale devices, vending machines, fare collection devices and access control devices.

WHY SMART CARD ?With their computing power, smart cards can perform a range of functions far more sophisticated than existing cards, which use more limited technologies like magneticstripes or bar codes. For example, where memory limitations in existing card systemsusually require a separate card for each application, smart cards have the ability to carry a wide variety of applications (i.e., loyalty, ID, payment) on a single card. In addition to having the capacity to contain these multiple applications, smart card computers also have the ability to “firewall” different applications off from each other, in order to ensure that data from multiple applications is not improperly shared.

Smart cards are also generally more durable than magnetic stripe or bar code cards : where these older technologies can easily rub off or be erased by magnets, smart cards carry their microchip inside the card, protecting it (and its data) from normal wear and tear.

Perhaps most significantly, because they are computers, smart cards have the ability to process information and transactions right on the card – without connections to external networks.

With all of these capabilities, smart cards can allow individuals to condense the entire contents of their wallet onto a single card!

Smart card construction

Mostly all chip cards are built from layers of differing materials, or substrates, that when brought together properly gives the card a specific life and functionality. The typical card today is made from PVC, Polyester or Polycarbonate. The card layers are printed first and then laminated in a large press. The next step in construction is the blanking or die cutting. This is followed by embedding a chip and then adding data to the card. In all, there may be up to 30 steps in constructing a card. The total components, including software and plastics, may be as many as 12 separate items; all this in a unified package that appears to the user as a simple device.

DisadvantageThe biggest problem facing smart cards is security and the problem is two fold. The first issue is that not all smart cards are in fact secure.

The second issue with security involves public perception of the technology. People must believe that the cards are secure. This depends to a great extent upon actual security, but people must also be convinced of it.

A third issue concerns who holds responsibility for the card. If the cash balance is wiped clean by a memory failure, who is liable, the person or the bank? If a transaction is not recorded, where are the lines drawn?

The final problem which smart cards will face in their move to diffuse extensively involves product complements 10

FutureSmart cards have emerged as a top candidate form any new governmental homeland defense and security needs because of their ability to securely verify the identity of individuals and protect access to critical facilities, such as airports. Because some of these new cards may also have the ability to tie into electronic payment systems, the rollout of smart cards for security purposes may concurrently boost the use of smart cards in financial applications . Smart cards are particularly suited for these applications because they are especially difficult to counterfeit. Because each card carries an actual computer, production of a counterfeit card would require not only accurate graphics and card materials, but also the ability to perfectly duplicate a card’s computer chip, software and unique encryption keys– making counterfeit cards virtually impossible . An added security feature of smart cards is their ability to carry a biometric – such as a fingerprint or iris scan – that is unique to the individual to whom the card was issued. By encoding one’s fingerprint, for example, on a personal smart card and requiring that any individual using that smart card first verify that his or her fingerprint matches the fingerprint on the card, smart cards offer strong protection against unauthorized use andidentity theft. Anyone who might steal an individual’s card will find it useless because they will be unable to use that card due to their biometric not matching.  11
