Smartcard Hall of Shame

• Cards we considered but were unable to use.

• Schlumberger CryptoFlex, MultiFlex

  • Internal authentication command returns only the first 6 of the 8 bytes of encrypted data. The “full DES” internal authentication command is not available in the standard version of the card.
  • Cyberflex Access addresses these issues

• IBM MFC

  • Encrypts a random number challenge presented by SCT_CMD_AUTHENTICATE command.
