Using smart cards

NOTE:

The term

smart card is used throughout this chapter to mean both smart cards and Java™

Cards.
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 (select models only).
A PIN is needed to gain access to the contents of the microchip. For more information about smart

card security features, access Help and Support by selecting Start > Help and Support.
