Testing electronic passports and smart cards

Overview

The smart card is a card with a built-in IC chip. These cards are known for their convenience and security and being used in many fields, such as finance/ID/communication/transit, etc. KTC is a KOLAS organization for ISO/IEC 7816, 14443, 10373-6 and other smart card areas. We conduct tests on the compliance of smart cards and other related systems, their durability, and security.
