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.
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.
