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, see Help and Support.
