Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
This module is based on a Gemalto Dual Interface (Contact ISO7816 and Contactless ISO14443) Open OS Smart Card with a large (72K EEPROM) memory, with a cryptographic applet suite V 2.6.1 developed by ActivIdentity. The SmartCard platform has on board Triple DES and RSA up to 2048 algorithms and provides X9.31 on board key generation. The Applet Suite supports management of 3DES keys and PINs, and provides services for authentication, access control, generic container and PKI . The module conforms to Java Card 2.2.1, Global Platform 2.1.1 and GSC/IS 2.1 standards.
