Smart cards are very efficient and flexible security solutions. Smart cards, or microprocessor cards, have their own operating system and cryptographic functionality. This makes them the ideal solution for the protection of IT systems and other assets.

Smart cards are mostly used to provide strong, multi-factor authentication. In addition to a PIN code cards can be equipped with biometric functions, leading to an even higher level of security.

Smart cards can also be used for digital signatures, time registration, payment functions, physical access, employee ID card, and more. They are available as contact cards, contactless cards, or hybrid / dual interface cards that combine both.

Smart card chips can even be used in USB tokens or SIM form factor, for even more flexibility.
