Overview Java Card technology adapts the Java platform for use on smart cards and other devices whose environments are highly specialized, and whose memory and processing constraints are typically more severe than those of J2ME devices. Smart cards are very useful in the areas of personal security. They can be used to add authentication and secure access to information systems that require a high level of security. Information stored in smart cards is portable. With Java Card technology the user can carry around valuable and sensitive personal information such as the medical history, credit card numbers, or electronic cash balances in a medium that is compact, yet very secure.
