The Security of Social Security Card System

IC card as a kind of micro intelligent products, is widely used in all fields.Social Security Card uses one of IC cards, which is known as the CPU card.Social Security Card as the sole electronics certificate for authentication-related affairs and transactions in the field of Labor and Social Security, the security of it is particularly important.Through the analysis of introduce the internal structure and security system design requirements of Social Security Card.In the while, in order to achieve the purpose of security applications, we focused on how to compartmentalize the security system of Social Security Card(security status, security attributes, security mechanisms, cryptographic algorithms and key management), and how to manage hardware and software through the card operating system(COS) and how to ensure the safety of user data transmission through a secure channel to exchange information with the outside.
