Smart Card Technologies

Smart card technologies use small plastic cards embedded with a microchip that can securely store and process data. These cards are used in various applications like banking, access control, and public transportation. The microchip enables secure authentication, transactions, and data management by allowing encrypted communication between the card and a reader. This technology enhances security, reduces fraud, and improves convenience compared to traditional magnetic strip cards. Smart cards can also include features like fingerprint recognition or PIN protection to ensure that only authorized users access the information or services stored on them.
