Review - Axalto .NET Smart Card

  • Artigo

Axalto (Schlumberger) has developed the new .NET Card Technology to seamlessly integrate with current software such as Word, Exchange, Windows XP, Windows CE, and upcoming products based on the .Net technology. The technology contains a multi-application smart card framework, which enables loading applications developed in any language supported by the .NET framework of Visual Basic NET, C#, J#.

The Axalto .NET smart card (with 128KB memory) has card module software which supports the Microsoft Base CSP. Microsoft had developed a management tool called SDA (Smartcard Deployment Application) to manage the entire smartcard life cycle. SDA will be replaced by CLM (Certificate Lifecycle Manager) which is a Microsoft product with business acquisition of Alacris. A SDK is also provided to customize the smart card.

Pros:

- Can combine smart card chip for logical access and RFID tag for physical access on the same badge.

- Easy applet development with .NET technology

Cons:
