With many years of experience in the development of secure cards and Java CardTM technology for applications in SIM, payment and ID cards, Giesecke+Devrient is providing a secure und proven smart card platform for BlueID from baimos technologies. Giesecke+Devrient’s smart cards are equipped with a Java CardTM operating system enabling not only data storage, but also the execution of Java applets. By employing strong encryption, the cryptographic protocols on the smart card improve the level of data security even further.

G+D’s secure card operating system and cryptologic protocols allow BlueID to initialize a special BlueID applet in the secure smart card environment and to securely receive and store data from smartphones via NFC. The Expert 7.0 card is EAL5+ certified.The software-based authorization by itself enables personalized secure keys to be remotely activated on smartphones for all kinds of objects like doors, cars, barriers, cabinets, etc.As Giesecke+Devrient and baimos will demonstrate at the IFSEC 2015, Giesecke+Devrient’s smart cards can now also be personalized with the same permissions that BlueID uses for smartphones. This bridges the gap between the existing infrastructure deployments and the mobile ecosystem, since BlueID permissions can be sent to selected smartphones and now as well to selected smart cards to increase security. BlueID permissions are time restricted and dedicated for unique identities. A PKI based BlueID permission clearly defines the holder, recipient, date and duration of access rights.To turn a compatible NFC smartphone into a secure smart card reader, the smartphone itself also has BlueID installed. This way both components – the stand-alone Giesecke+Devrient smart card to be personalized, as well as the smartphone being the NFC card reader – have dedicated unique and secure identities.

The smartphone then transfers the defined permissions contactlessly via NFC onto the Giesecke+Devrient smart card. The whole transport process and permission storage is 100% protected and can get clearly determined as well as controlled by BlueID.“BlueID is offering a robust security concept for digital smartphone permissions that scales and easily allows mass installation. We are pleased to support them with our expertise and products in order to go one step further by integrating the latest smart card technology into their permission system”, says Axel Deininger, Group Senior Vice President and Head of the Enterprise Security & OEM division at Giesecke+Devrient.“Smart cards will remain a popular carrier of digital identities and access permissions. With our latest innovation smart card management can now leverage the benefits of the mobile wave,” states Philipp Spangenberg, CEO of baimos technologies. “Companies can now securely personalize smart cards with access permissions via already existing hardware – a corporate or private smartphone – outside of their firewalls to easily and instantly grant access to dedicated objects for employees, guests and subcontractors. Specific and expensive reader hardware across the whole ecosystem is not necessary anymore.”baimos technologies and demo partner Giesecke+Devrient will present the Secure Smartcard Personalization solution at this year’s IFSEC Conference in London at Stand C1605.About Giesecke & DevrientGiesecke+Devrient (G+D) is a leading international technology provider headquartered in Munich, Germany.
