Identity and access control in private and public organizations continue to be a significant market for smart cards globally, due in part to the increasing security awareness among high-level decision makers. The use of information technology has also spawned the need to secure digital assets, people and sensitive information.

In addition, the convenience of the card form factor for physical and network access combined with the smart card security features have no doubt convinced the majority of smart card users.
