The Smart Cards Are Coming. There's Nowhere to Hide - Dataquest

Smart cards are gaining popularity in applications around us from reducing fraud for the financial industry, personalizing for cell phone users, to securing access of computers and organization resources, and for streamlining and securing healthcare processes.

Standard Card Operating System Platforms

Java Card brings ease, openness and portability of Java's benefits to smart cards. MartSoft Java Card OS Technology is developed on top of the highly secure Atmel Visa-approved (Level-3), EAL4+ smart card ICs.

MartSoft card OS allows multiple issuers to issue and manage applications on the same card. And the flash-based smart cards offer great convenience and efficiency for upgrading the on-card firmware in real time, without the traditional lengthy and expensive re-masking of ROM.
