Using smart cards

NOTE:

The term smart card is used throughout this chapter to mean both smart cards and Java™ Cards.

A smart card is a credit card-sized accessory that carries a microchip containing memory and a

microprocessor. Like personal computers, smart cards have an operating system to manage input and output,

and they include security features to protect against tampering. Industry-standard smart cards are used with

the smart card reader (select models only).
A PIN is needed to gain access to the contents of the microchip. For more information about smart card

security features, access HP Support Assistant. To access HP Support Assistant on the Start screen, select the

HP Support Assistant app.
