Conformity testing of smart cards and readers
Your benefits at a glance
We accompany the standardization and conformity tests for eIDs
The interoperability of electronic identity documents and corresponding readers is a key requirement for being able to check today's more than 500 million electronic passports, or eMRTDs, at international borders. It is also crucial for the full use of ID functions in e-government and access control applications. Our experts have played a key role in this development: The global interoperability that is taken for granted today is based on test standards and the availability of automated test tools for conformance testing, such as GlobalTester - from which almost the entire digital world benefits. We are proud of this. We support you with expert advice on test procedures for chip cards, readers, and protocols. We analyze requirements from standards and test specifications and perform conformity tests for BSI certifications in our ISO 17025-accredited testing laboratory. Discover our consulting services and let us provide you with personalized support.
