Dispositivo
criptográfico de las dimensiones de una tarjeta de crédito. Contiene un
microprocesador que realiza operaciones sobre datos almacenados internamente o
proporcionados a través de la interfaz con el exterior.

se usan para proporcionar servicios criptográficos tales como autenticación o
cifrado de datos.
(I) A credit-card
sized device containing one or more integrated circuit chips that perform the
functions of a computer's central processor, memory, and input/output
interface. (See: PC card, smart token.)
Usage: Sometimes
this term is used rather strictly to mean a card that closely conforms to the
dimensions and appearance of the kind of plastic credit card issued by banks
and merchants. At other times, the term is used loosely to include cards that
are larger than credit cards, especially cards that are thicker, such as PC
cards.
[RFC4949:2007]
(I) A device that
conforms to the definition of "smart card" except that rather than
having the standard dimensions of a credit card, the token is packaged in some
other form, such as a military dog tag or a door key. (See: smart card, cryptographic
token.) [RFC4949:2007]
On définit la carte à
puce de manière générale comme "un ordinateur personnel de la taille d'une
carte de crédit" (Simon Davies). Il s'agit d'une carte disposant de moyens
intelligents dont le but est de mettre en oeuvre des calculs cryptographiques
permettant d'assurer les services de sécurité suivants: authentification,
confidentialité, intégrité et preuve.
