The ever-increasing capacity of smart cards opens up another new potential application area for chip technology. Smart storage media is evolving into a personal anti-theft device that allows for the storage and retrieval of personal programs and data. However, the market's strong demand is mainly due to the need for data confidentiality.
Microsoft Chairman Gates said on behalf of his group at an information technology forum in Copenhagen: "The era of passwords has passed, and the future belongs to smart cards." Gates specifically stated that passwords exposed their weaknesses in transmitting or switching confidential data. However, smart cards are not the case. Last year, the market has introduced technologies that use electronic keys for secure storage and the use of human features for identification (the US uses this technology for identity documents), providing a number of new alternatives to the market. In the near future, Microsoft also intends to provide smart cards to all employees, which can enter and exit the office building and turn on the computer. Gates expects: "We will soon abandon the use of passwords."
The main reason for this trend is the continued increase in the capacity of smart cards. The tiny chip is compatible with 32-bit (32-bit) processors and has performance comparable to 386
The computer processor matches. According to the so-called Moore's Law (experts predict that this law will remain valid for the next decade), the storage will double every 18 months. However, the combination of a human body recognition program and a non-contact technology provides a new opportunity for the security of the authentication identity. For example, the United States uses state-of-the-art chip technology along with RFID technology to create e-passports.
Although the monitoring of such passports still has loopholes in data protection, many other smart card projects (such as e-health cards or work permits) show the potential of this technology, and should ensure that the growth of the smart card market will continue to be introduced every year. Depends 15% to 20%. In today's information society evolved into a so-called electronic society, there are many experts who believe that intelligent storage media will play a leading role. The implementation of international cooperation arrangements such as citizenship certificates for all EU citizens can also promote the development of technology.
The potential application range of the chip card in the future is affected by social and technological trends. This is because smart cards have historically been used primarily in telecommunications and money transactions. Continuous improvement in performance has also extended this technology to many other areas. In this regard, the professional believes that the most important development in the development of future chip cards is the ability to initiate Internet protocols on their own (IP), and finally can be directly integrated into the existing information technology system, eliminating all roundabouts or additional software.
In addition, smart cards will be able to use a growing variety of mobile services and applications. As long as any terminal is connected, the chip card will suddenly become a multi-purpose tool for personal communication and identification. The smart card is being developed as a personal anti-theft device for storing and retrieving data that is purely personal, bringing convenience to the user's daily work and private life, and benefiting from the substantial value added, pushing the quality of the flow to another level.
However, due to the rapid expansion of digitalization, network connectivity and the ability to retrieve multimedia information from around the world, the demand for encryption services has increased accordingly, and current encryption services require passwords. The more convenient the encryption technology is, the more difficult it is to solve the security problem, but the personal anti-theft device can provide a new solution with the relevant computer and storage capacity. Although the market uses external equipment such as a self-finance computerized face-cut reader to create confidential contacts (such as contacting a bank server), so far only individual solutions can be provided for these types of transactions, and the user's computer still needs to install special software. .
The combination of high-performance smart cards and body recognition programs takes privacy technology to another level. Therefore, the security technology for smart cards can be combined with the so-called token system, which is an algorithm that is based on algorithms and can retrieve certificates or certificates. In the process, a secret contact is created through the public key infrastructure, and the card owner can enter any server without any password. The server will identify its identity through the card owner's personal security device.
In addition, users can use other security features such as electronic signing or encryption for special data. These features eliminate the possibility of so-called scams. In the future, the smart card itself will provide more confidential services.
At present, the risk of confidentiality is limited to the network that individuals use to log in with smart cards, but the data stored in the chip itself or on the chip may also be the target of invasion. Therefore, chip manufacturers are committed to designing programs that make storage media more secure. In fact, if a smart card is attacked, the program will issue an indication of self-destruction.
Utilizing the user identity card of the device on the mobile phone (SIM Cards or new generation chips installed on billing and credit cards can achieve confidentiality standards. And who will take the lead in providing new services has not yet been finalized. The banking industry is considering providing its existing structure to other market participants. However, the telecommunications industry has indicated its intention to provide additional functions such as admittance monitoring or local public transport ticketing. The reason for this is that these services not only increase the attractiveness of smart cards, but also increase the attractiveness of the services provided by the suppliers themselves.
