ACOS5-64 is an advanced Cryptographic Smart Card that is fully compliant with ISO7816-1/2/3/4/8/9 and common criteria EAL5+ (chip level) specifications. It is specifically designed to enhance the security and performance of RSA Public-key cryptographic operations, which are essential factors in applications requiring smart card PKI, digital signature and high level security.
With the CSP/ PKCS#11 middleware and mini-driver developed by ACS, the ACOS5-64 Cryptographic Smart Card can easily be used in both Windows and Linux applications. The ACOS5-64 supports the latest Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 in both x86 and x64 bit environment. (See: ACOS5-64 Client Kit)
Further, ACOS5-64 allows multiple secure PKI applications in one card. By requesting for a digital certificate from a Public Certificate Authority (CA) or an in-house CA, one can use ACOS5-64 in a variety of applications, namely:
- Full 64KB of EEPROM memory for application data
