Smart Card Security#

Two standardized approaches are Federal Information Processing Standard 140 (FIPS 140) and the Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation (CC).

FIPS 140 specifies the requirements for cryptographic modules used by departments and agencies of the United States federal government. FIPS 140 defines four levels of security that require increasing security features.

Common Criteria for Information Technology Security Evaluation (CC) is an internationally approved security evaluation framework (ISO/IEC 15408) currently recognized by 25 countries.
