Module description

The Cryptoflex e-Gate card is a credit-card sized computer with a crypto-processor dedicated to security. Cryptoflex e-Gate card implements security industry functions based on public key cryptography directly onto the card, therefore eliminating the risk of sending secret data across a network. Keys and certificates for a variety of applications are stored in a single secure location, isolated from computer disks, which can fail or damaged and are susceptible to security breaches ad theft. The card provides maximum security and flexibility of system integration thanks to administrative functions such as secure key loading, on-card key generation and ciphering of imported/exported data. The Cryptoflex e- gate card incorporates, apart from the conventional ISO 7816-3 interface, also the USB interface normally resident in the smart card reader. Thus, it bridges the gulf between the public terminal infrastructure (ISO 7816-3) and the PC world (USB).
