USB Smart Token CardOS V5.3

CardOS V5.3 is a multifunctional native smart card operating system, which is extendable by customized packages to amend or adjust the operating system functionality. In addition the authentication framework is a flexible option to realize authentication protocols by using configuration data. With the ICAO functionality (ICAO Doc 9303) CardOS 5.3 is suited for contact based eID projects based on BAC and EAC protocols. CardOS 5.3 offers state-of-the-art crypto algorithms with AES, SHA-2 and elliptic curves. The ISO compliant security architecture of CardOS V5.3 supports access rules in expanded format. Atos CardOS API middleware is available separately and provides the best integration to standard applications on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
