Smart Card File System

By | Smart Cards | No Comments

Some of the smart card file system tree as the DOS file system. ISO7816.4 provided by the smart card file is divided into: DF (Dedicated File) and EF (Elementary File). DF contains some control information, it can be EF or DF of the parent. This is some like the DOS files in the directory. EF is a unit of data collection, it can not be any files in the parent document. This is some like the DOS in the TXT file.

As smart cards using different security mechanisms, such security mechanism in the following two aspects: one for the microprocessor card than for read-only memory card is more complicated.
Read the information from the card to control aspects:
Limit the scope of smart card users
Some of the smart card, anyone can read the card information, names and blood type as the records of the patients medical cards, smart cards generally do not set this password, as long as anyone can get the card to read the card information. At this time the card body itself is a form of protection.
Cardholders can only read information for the smart card usually called PIN (personal identification number) to protect the password in the form of information on the card, usually by a 4-8 PIN numbers, card reader through the keyboard input, it allows the cardholder enter the password three times, and if none of the three lose, the card will be locked, only the PIN code on, the user can operate the card. At present there are also some more advanced form of the password being developed.
Can only read information for third-party smart card can be read only on the card issuer information. (For example, issuers can be rewritten only information on the e-wallet). At this time the smart card from the 16-32 digit password to protect.
Limited information on the smart card reader the way (read-only, you can add, modify or erase). Stored on the smart card information is generally divided into several parts:
Read-only information
The information can be added only
Updated information only
The information can not be read
This information can be stored in some of the password can not read the storage area.
The structure and support from the card encryption algorithm to control
As mentioned above only the right to know the password to use the talent to make smart cards, but if need be by radio or telephone lines in different places on the card information to send to must also have an additional means of protection.

Means of protection is encryption, which seems to send the information to be translated into foreign languages who can not read. Microprocessor smart cards with encryption and decryption (to read something and then translated back) of the features that make the transmission of information stored on the card, but also worry about leaks occur.

Through encryption, smart card information can be translated into hundreds of millions of “foreign language”, and need to communicate, you can randomly choose one. This prevention mechanism to ensure that the use of real and effective cards and computers, makes it almost impossible to send the information to steal halfway.This is the reason why Smart Card not as same as the formal Business Plastic Cards.

Knowledge of Smart Card

By | Smart Cards | No Comments

    Smart cards can promote around the world, play in different systems of her role in the development of international norms is essential. For example, the size of a smart card provided by the ISO7810 standard. ISO7816 standard provides a number of plastic card, the physical properties, including temperature range, flexibility, location of electrical contacts and built the external micro-chip and the mode of exchange of information.  

Reader in the discussion, we first find out “reader” of the concept. Broadly speaking, “reader” means all can read and write on the card device. However, in the smart card industry, “reader” means that the computer must be connected to the computer to issue appropriate instructions to accept completion of the card to control the operation of equipment. And “Reader” is a device, which we call “terminal.” “Terminal” means that the card can operate independent of the equipment, without the help of computer. Readers and terminals can be completed on a smart card reader.

The reader is more dependent on computers than the terminal, so she has more flexibility than the terminal. The easiest way is to use a card reader and PC. General PC via RS232 serial port, USB interfaces, PCMCIA interface, a floppy disk interface, parallel port, infrared port, etc. to get in touch with the reader. PC interfaces to the reader through these instructions issued by ISO, the reader after receiving the instruction command of reading and writing instruction card, complete the write operation when the card after the reader back to the success of a command Accordingly, the reader after receiving the card corresponding to tell PC, PC time based on the results of the corresponding instruction operation to the next ISO. For more on the smart card operating instructions, see the [smart card interface protocol]. Generally, we program the smart card, most of them use the card reader to complete the operation.

One of the most common terminal is used in shopping malls and hotel POS machines. Her greatest feature: its own operating platform and development system that can read and write on the card, independent, have Modem functionality and printing transactional capabilities. General there are magnetic read and write capabilities.

Christmas Gift Card

By | Plastic cards | No Comments

Specially decorated Christmas Gift Cards are available now for almost all the types of gift cards there are. About in the middle of November, gift cards start to come out in their Christmas versions. Many people like to give and to get specially decorated Christmas gift cards. This page is full of information about Christmas Gift Cards.

Some say gift cards are impersonal, but cash is even more impersonal! Christmas gift cards have become personalizable, too, with the name of the receiver and even a message. Creative ways to wrap gift cards have blossomed in the last few years, too, from premade gift card holders to custom gift card wrapping. The Starbucks Gift Card comes in twelve different Christmas versions, so fans can collect all twelve. A Christmas gift card is an excuse for the receiver to get something she wouldn’t get for herself.

Christmas Gift Exchange at Work

By | Gift Cards | No Comments

It is that time of year again already! Assuming you were with your firm this time last year and perhaps for years prior, you have likely developed a comfortable working relationship with your boss and co-workers.

However, the proper office ‘etiquette’ varies with each firm and industry. Each having their own practices and preferences when it comes to Christmas gift exchange policies.

I know some firms prefer to have a nice Christmas Luncheon or Dinner, with no gift exchange, while others enjoy ‘gag’ gift giving. Still others prefer only Christmas cards, or put a cap on the amount to be spent on gifts, if at all. Still others grant personal preference, so it is left up to the individual.

Where gifts are concerned, it can be difficult to know exactly what to get for a co-worker, and most especially, for your boss. In my own experience, I have always felt it was appropriate to give my boss, or bosses, and each of my team members a Christmas card. I think it is also appropriate and important to remember those in other areas of internal firm services, which serve all staff on a daily basis such as, Reception, Mailroom, Printing, Graphics, Accounting, and Office Services Coordinators.

In my humble attempt to be of assistance to those that may be in a quandary as to what would be an appropriate gift for the boss and their team members, I offer the suggestions listed below. I believe that these suggestions are appropriate and within budget, particularly if a ‘group’ gift, and would not be perceived as ‘overly personal’.

Biscotti;

Book – if you know the individual’s tastes well enough;

Box Store Gift Certificate – Canadian Tire, FutureShop, Home Depot, Home Sense, IKEA;

Ceramic Christmas ‘Table’ Decorations – perhaps with lighting, such as a centrepiece, candle holders;

Christmas ‘Tree’ Ornaments;

Coffee Carafe including favourite coffee beans – Starbucks, Blenz, Tim’s;

Coffee Gift Card – Starbucks, Blenz, Tim’s;

Costco Membership;

Dinner ‘for 2’ Gift Certificate – Morton’s, Keg Caesar’s, Joe Fortes, Bridges, Boathouse;

‘High Quality’ Personal Wall Calendars – art, architecture, scenic;

Movie or Theatre Tickets;

Music CD – possibly Christmas CD, if you know the individual’s tastes well enough; and

Parking or Transit Pass.

I hope the ideas above have helped you with your gift selections. Perhaps you can pass along this post to someone you know who needs a little help coming up with some ideas for their own workplace.

How Custom Printed Plastic Cards Can Improve Your Business

By | ID Cards | No Comments

Plastic cards are all about business.  They are used for identification and access purposes by the government (from the DOT to your local library), healthcare, office, and industrial environments.  Debit and credit cards populate billfolds alongside phone cards and grocery store reward cards.  It is safe to say that anyone making a living in today’s fast paced world uses plastic cards of all types to make their lives more efficient.  You can help your customers out even more by making these an integral part of your own company model.

There are many reasons to choose plastic cards over paper to enhance your business appeal.  Plastic is very durable and with advanced printing technology cards can be turned into colorful works of art.  Even simple business cards can be printed on thin plastic stock since they don’t bend and crumple on their way into a wallet like paper cards do.  Magnetic stripe cards offer a high degree of versatility because they can be programmed to contain virtually any encoded information you choose.

Plastic is designed to last so it makes sense to create cards that can be used multiple times.  Re-loadable gift cards and preferred customer reward cards make sure your company information stays in circulation as long as possible.  Frequent customer programs appear much more professional (and therefore more valuable) when data is loaded onto a plastic card rather than hole-punched on a plain paper one.  Redeemable cards can easily be designed to feature your enticing offer on the front and a redemption code on the back.  You can create these promotional codes to be redeemable online to make it even more cost effective for your customers to choose you over a competitor.

If you have a mailing list of customers, you might print your logo (or your family Christmas portrait) on a card, slap a magnet on the back and send it out.  It will become an indispensable refrigerator accessory your clients will see every day.  At-a-glance calendars can also fit on a wallet sized plastic card with your company information and web address at the top.

You don’t have to settle for boring or cheap designs if you know where to look for help.  Even tiny gradations in blended color can be accurately captured with today’s lithographic printing equipment.  This means complex images such as photographs come out looking fantastic.  If you need bold and simple graphics in a smaller range of bright colors, thermal transfer printing offers some great options for logos and text.

If you don’t have the cash to invest in this printing equipment you can always have a custom job delivered by a professional plastic card printing company.  They can assist you with designing the perfect look for your business.  Make sure you are sending your job to a secure facility if you are having sensitive material like IDs printed.  Health benefits cards in particular may have high risk information on them if an individual’s social security ID is used as the member number.
