What Is a Smart Card?
A smart card is a small, tamperproof computer. The smart card itself contains a CPU and some non-volatile storage. In most cards, some of the storage is tamperproof while the rest is accessible to any application that can talk to the card. This capability makes it possible for the card to keep some secrets, such as the private keys associated with any certificates it holds.
Why a Smart Card?
- Provide tamper-resistant storage for protecting private keys and other forms of personal information
- Isolate security-critical computations, involving authentication, digital signatures, and key exchange from other parts of the system that donot have a need to know
- Enable portability of credentials and other private information between computers at work, at home, or on the road
