Card Tech® is an Italian company which operates in the sector of the research, development and commercialisation of mobile devices devoted to security. Card Tech® aims to improve the life of people thanks to innovative, secure and user-friendly solutions and products. In the sector of palm computers, the activities of Card Tech® leverages the combined use of biometrics, employed for identifying the user, and secure RFID/NFC communications. In the smart cards sector, the company has developed an ISO7810 ID-1 and ISO 7816 compliant card fitted with an ultra-thin biometric sensor, battery and chip that allow for a secure match-on-system.
The mission of Card Tech is that of realising innovative devices which guarantee the security of data: in a world which leans ever more towards pervasive computing, the privacy of communication and the security of monetary transactions can be easily compromised. The use of biometric sensing technologies, such as the fingerprint scan, can comfortably replace the use of a password or PIN, but more than anything else, can exponentially increase the security (real and perceived) of users. Card Tech® poses itself the objective of making secure daily operations such as payments, physical and logical access, improving accessibility and therefore the quality of life of the users.
