Synopsis:

Smart Card Developer's Kit is designed to provide the practical information you need to design and build applications that incorporate smart cards. Using a combination of detailed exposition, technical reference summaries, and extended examples, this book familiarizes you with the unique strengths and capabilities of this emerging computer technology. Increase your security from a one-factor security-a password-to a two-factor security-a smart card and its PIN. Use the smart card as a portable place to carry your personal preference information and your identity-establishing private signing key. In marketing applications, a smart card offers a much wider and more flexible set of customer benefits than a magnetic-strip card or a paper record card. A smart card can also carry secured information-such as medical records, licenses, subscriptions, and accreditations-that must be guarded against tampering.

From the Author: Smart Cards for System Designers and Programmers
The intended audience of "Smart Card Developer's Kit" is people designing systems that use smart cards and people writing code to implement those systems.

The book strives to be both a detailed description of smart card technology for system designers and a reference and resource manual for programmers.
