SMART CARD SOLUTIONS
A smart card is a plastic card containing a small chip that includes a microprocessor and memory. The same size as a credit card, it has gold contacts that allow other devices to communicate with the card. It can contain more data than a magnetic strip and can be programmed to reveal only the relevant information. For example, it could tell a device in a store that there is sufficient balance in an account to pay for a transaction without revealing the balance amount. Encryption techniques secure the data, and the processor allows it to be programmed for different applications.
Some cards can be credited with small amounts of money that can then be spent in stores. The card can be credited with more money when required. It can be used to verify the identity of the cardholder and is much harder to forge than a card with a magnetic strip. No- Contact cards can be read remotely.
At Our R&D Facility work is ongoing to develop further standards and applications for cards, to make them even more tamperproof, and to reduce their cost.
Digiplates Software is focusing on developing applications for privilege smart cards for various secured membership oriented organizations like Clubs, Associations, Hotels, Resorts, banks and other institutes.
