Card Management of the FIPS 201 Personal Identity Verification Card

Overview This paper describes how the client-application programming interface and the card platform commands of the FIPS 201 Personal Identity Verification card are used to perform card management. The discussion is driven primarily by a series of card management examples. Typically card management operations are only performed by the card issue or an application provider although a cardholder changing their PIN is strictly speaking also an example of a card management operation. Card management includes both card personalization - making the card ready for use by a particular individual - and card administration - adding an application to the card.
