Multipurpose smart card

[attachment=327]

Project Objective
To carry several cards one card can simultaneously be an ID, a credit card, a stored-value cash card, and a repository of personal information such as telephone numbers or medical history, can be used in voting application in order to avoid proxy of votes, in attendance management in various institutes to track the performance of the candidates. Such a card can be easily replaced if lost, and, because a PIN number (or other form of security) must be used to access information, is totally useless to people other than its legal bearer. At the first attempt to use it illegally, the card would be deactivated by the card reader itself Document Conventions hence they are flexible.

Currently smart card implementations can he seen around the world but they are not unified i.e. each developer uses different programming standards and data structures, therefore a variety of smart cards exist in our society today. An example can be seen in Singapore where they have variety of smart card for the same purpose i.e. storing monetary value. One called E2 Link is used for their public transport system and is also usable in some food courts while the other cash cards are used for their toll system ERP, parking and supermarkets. This is a problem that exists today and one that needs to be noted or fixed. Our, aim is to create a Multipurpose card system, in this system using single card you can handle number of technology.

Problem Definition
Multipurpose smart card giving all services and making data processing and data transfer more efficient and secure. First application involves in various modes of transport, each time a traveler swipes his card, money would be deducted from it and a confirmation ticket would be provided to him. Transactions would be recorded in the swap machine which can be easily retrieved by providing the card number.

Introduction:

Multipurpose smart card giving all services and making data processing and data transfer more efficient and secure. First application involves in various modes of transport, each time a traveller swipes his card, money would be deducted from it and a confirmation ticket would be provided to him. Transactions would be recorded in the swap machine which can be easily retrieved by providing the card number.

This system can also be used in voting. Eligible voters can be registered with the issuance of smart card. The card will be marked inactive once he casts his vote. Thus eliminating phantom of multiple votes by the same person. It can also be used in Time and Attendance Management system in various organizations and educational institutes. The system records details such as arrival and departure of employees besides maintaining information regarding their personal, official profiles and to minimize loss due to employee downtime.

Uses:

The smart cards play a vital role in todays life. There are different smart cards for different purposes. For example- credit cards, debit cards, voting cards, Aadhar cards, etc. These different cards are to be carried by the people wherever they go, for different purposes.

Recent solution provider enhancements make smart cards more accessible to a broader market, especially small- and medium-sized organizations. The study makes it clear that the ancient, perimeter-based defense model that has been used for decades, is no longer effective by itself.

Key features of smart card:

The multi-purpose nature of smart-cards.
Advancement in credential management systems that support the management of smart cards and card-based credential throughout their lifecycle.
Greater vendor-integration and out-of-the-box support for essential capabilities, such as certificate authorities, hardware security modules and integration of card-based authentication with applications, networks, endpoints, servers, physical access management systems, etc.
Greater flexibility and choice in terms of deployment models.

Government ACT:

The Government of India proposed to issue Multi-purpose National Identity (smart) Card (MNIC) to the citizens in the country.
"Under the pilot project, identity smart cards are being issued to the citizens of age 18 years and above," the Minister said.
He further added it has been decided that the implementation of the scheme in the entire country would be based in the light of the experiences gained and lessons learnt from the pilot project.
The government is working on a proposal to issue multi-purpose smart identity cards to all adult citizens by the end of 2013, a move that could result in cost savings for the exchequer.
The proposal has been made under Citizenship Act amendment made in 2003

The complexity of voting procedures, and their variations from country to country, make it challenging to design a secure electronic voting system. In most of the usual proposals, the security of the system relies mainly on a blackbox voting machine
