SOPHISTICATED MULTI PURPOSE CARD
AIM:
The main aim of this project is to implement a system in which a SMART CARD can be used as a security token for different types of applications.
PURPOSE:
The purpose of the project is to provide an automation system using SMART CARD technology in which a SMART CARD can be used for multi purposes.
METHODOLOGY:
DESCRIPTION:
In this project we have the Smart Card Reader, which is an electronic device that reads smart cards. The card reader provides power supply to the integrated chip on the smart card. Communication is done according protocols and you can read and write to a fixed address on the card.
The Smart card stores the secret information of the concerned person. Whenever a smart card is being inserted in the smart card reader, the Smart card Reader reads the card and is communicated with the controller through serial RS-232 connector. Then it prompts for password displayed on LCD which is previously given to the concerned person. Whenever pin code is entered through keypad then the transaction will be occurred if and only if the password matches with actual pre-stored password. The access of smart cards is done in front end application.
TECHNOLOGY:
Smart cards are secure tokens that have provided security services to a wide range of applications for over thirty years. Along with other technology advances, smart card technology has changed dramatically as well. For nearly a decade, researchers have sought to connect smart cards to the Internet. The benefits are more including providing services over the Internet and eliminating smart card specific infrastructure.
A smart card is an integrated circuit card that forms a part of a circuit or system when engaged with a smart card interface. Smart cards are becoming increasingly more popular for security and personal identification applications. Smart cards have one or more microcontrollers embedded in them which manage access to, and storage of, sensitive data that is actually stored in memory devices on the smart card. The smart chip included on a smart card provides a means for secured electronic transactions and a means for identification. The integrated chip is embedded in the smart card and operates to process specific transactions. The smart card uses a serial interface and receives its power from an external source such as a smart card reader.
