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.
