India based software development services
providers can develop applications both on Smart Card
Development and Magnetic-Stripe based terminals. Offshore
development centers in India have expertise in almost
all the leading terminals such as Magic Series, Exadigm
terminals, etc. Smart cards represent the ideal medium
for managing monetary sums electronically. For the payment
transactions, smart card terminals are needed that establish
an electrical connection to the smart card.
In addition, the service provider specializes
in the design and development of complete transaction-oriented
technology solutions for retailers, financial processors,
point of sale hardware manufacturers, and other transaction-based
businesses.
Smart Cards and Smart Cards Terminal
Application Development can be utilized in the following
areas:
E-Business
While doing e-business, online security plays a very
vital role that must satisfy the criteria of confidentiality,
integrity and authenticity. Smart cards are the perfect
product for protecting digital identity. The private
key is embedded in the chip of the smart card, and is
never removed. In addition, the smart card will function
only if a PIN has been entered beforehand.
Smart card terminals are required for
the data exchange that establish an electrical connection
to the smart card. Smart card and smart card terminal
are suited for a variety of applications: strong authentication-in
the areas of remote access, terminal server environments,
SAP R/3 and LAN, certificate-based or with one-time
passwords. Moreover they are suitable for file encryption
(by data encryption), e-mail encryption and digital
signature.
E-Payment
Online shopping and payment through Internet is
increasingly being used by consumers all over the world.
A smart card is the ultimate medium to manage sum electronically.
Payment cards save amounts in the form of bit values
directly on the card-whereas credit cards use data and
keys of the user alongside protocols such as SET (Secure
Electronic Transactions) for secure payment. For the
payment transactions, smart card terminals are needed
that establish an electrical connection to the smart
card.
E-Government
The realm of e-government covers the execution of
government administration and services. E-government
uses the Internet and other electronic media for the
communication and integration of citizenry and companies.
Confidential and legally binding data are transmitted
over a principally unsafe medium in the process. Smart
cards and smart card terminals are therefore predestined
to guarantee confidentiality, integrity and authenticity.
This way, users (private individuals and companies)
can use a certificate stored on a smart card, functioning
as digital identity, to transmit contracts, tax forms,
and other documents to the respective communal service
provider.
