Triple DES algorithm
Advanced Encryption Standard algorithm as defined in FIPS PUB 197
Application Protocol Data Unit as defined in ISO7816-3
An identification or entity authentication technique assures one party (the verifier), through acquisi-
tion of corroborative evidence, of both the identity of a second party involved, and that the second
(the claimant) was active at the time the evidence was created or acquired. (From Handbook of
Applied Cryptography)
Application Specific Standard Product
Cipher Block Chaining method applied to block ciphers
Cipher Feedback Register chaining method applied to block ciphers
Circuit(s) Cards Interface Devices
Cipher-based Message Authentication Code
Central Processing Unit
A bit string used as a secret parameter by a cryptographic algorithm. To prevent a key from being
guessed, keys need to be generated truly randomly and contain sufficient entropy.
Data Encryption Standard algorithm as defined in FIPS PUB 46-3
Any CPU with master or slave capability
Digital Signature Algorithm as defined in FIPS PUB 186-2
Electronic Code Book chaining method applied to block ciphers

An algorithm or technique that is specified or adopted in FIPS
Hash-based Message Authentication Code as defined in FIPS PUB 198
Entity that communicates (directly or not) with the device.
HMAC-based One Time Password algorithm as defined in RFC 4226
Smart Card interface
Message Authentication Code - A bit string of fixed length, computed by a MAC generation algo-
rithm, that is used to establish the authenticity and, hence, the integrity of a message.
The device that initiates and terminates a transmission. The Master also generates the clock for syn-
chronous interface.
