- INTRODUCTION
- Smart cars technology has made a huge impact into the
- Smart card technology is the fuel driving this convenient means of making payments and carrying out online transactions (Smith, n.d.).
- One benefit of smart cards is that they can be integrated with different technologies, including proprietary proximity, magnetic-stripe and biometric systems (Staff, n.d.)
- While being very expensive and as with any technology it sensitive data can be exposed, Smart card is convenient in the changing technological world because smart cards are that they provide enhanced security for private data, Keep valuable data safe from theft, and has the flexibility to be a ID card and credit card.
- ACCESS CONTROL PROCESS
- Effective security in any access control environment starts with the understanding the principals involved and these three elements will provide the needed protection
- Identification- Username, e-mail signature, key to the server room
- Authentication- Validating a password to a username, fingerprints, smartcards, encryption keys
- Authorization- Takes the form of read, write and permission to the execution of usernames

- PROBLEMS WITH SMART CARD TECHNOLOGY
- Smart card can be more costly due to their complexity
- Only compatible with certain smart readers
- Privacy issues with hackers exposing data
- Physical controls-reader not working properly
Unlike many other forms of data storage, once information is placed on a smart card it is there forever. The information stored on a smart card cannot be erased, deleted, or altered. (Conrad, 2018)
- THE ISO/IEC 14443 AND ISO/IEC 7816 STANDARDS
- ISO/IEC 14443 is one of a series of International Standards describing the parameters for identification cards as defined in ISO/IEC 7810, and the use of such cards for international interchange.(Identification cards — Contactless integrated circuit cards — Proximity cards — Part 4: Transmission protocol, n.d.)
- Contactless smart card
- Proximity Card
- PKI support
- Biometric support

- SECURITY
- Technology and security are strongly related. Crackers find sophisticated ways to get at supposedly secure data on cards = Manufacturers have to come up with more sophisticated locks and keys on cards = Crackers come up with better techniques to bypass these … thus forming an infinite improvement loop, with both sides driving each other to use and invent better technology(Smart Card Technology and Security, n.d.).
- Small data packets
- Encrypted data and transfers
- advanced cryptographic algorithms
- Upgraded software
- FUTURE OF SMART TECHNOLOGY
- As a result of the expansion of the smart technology in the work environment, In 2018, the World Economic Forum predicted AI would create 58 million new jobs in the next five years (Gibbons, 2019).
- Aligning AI with business objectives
- Super jobs
- New skill sets
