• Smart card adoption without expensive and time consuming programming
• eSignature technology that costs 5 times less than PKI (public key infrastructure) cards
• Age and biometric identity verification for online transactions
• Patented smart card systems for secure data/ information storage

MOST Card C Series is a microprocessor-based smart card family available in contact, contactless, and dual-interfaces with up to 162k bytes of user memory. Built on EAL5+ certified silicon and powered by the CardLogix MOST Card Operating System, they are designed for multi-function and high security applications. The series supports advanced security mechanisms including AES encryption, SHA-256 HMAC authentication, session key-based ePurse functions, key diversification, and eSignatures with vaulted and threshold key protection. The silicon provides continuous internal encryption of all data and the virtualization and rotation of the data across the non-volatile memory for secure data storage. The MOST OS features an error detection code and security self-tests with built-in anti-tearing mechanisms to support heavy transactional environments. MOST Card is future-proofed, working on multiple silicon vendors’ devices, so your projects will always be supported. The operating system is also fully customizable in order to meet unique requirements.

MOST Cards enable the rapid design, development, enrollment, and issuance of sophisticated smart cards. CardLogix MOST Toolz™ lets users build unique systems that grow with their needs. The kit includes a user-friendly card file and key configuration utility, sample source code, demo consoles, and the CardLogix Winplex® API and Middleware. If needed, CardLogix will assist or architect complete system solutions. Biometric and biographic enrollment is available with Corvus’ biometric enrollment kits that integrate seamlessly with CardLogix’ card design, printing, and encoding software, Card Encoding Engine™. The software is pre-configured to encode MOST Cards without requiring custom scripts, APIs, or programming for central or distributed issuance needs. The platform also leverages multiple software applications such as CardLogix FastCheck™, PassCheck™ and other credential verification software solutions that are built on the MOST OS and are fully customizable.
