- Australian Government Smartcard Framework
- Australian Government Information Management Office, May 2007. "The Australian Government Smartcard Framework fits in well with the priorities of the 2006 e-Government Strategy – Responsive Government – A New Service Agenda. It aims to ensure that governments in Australia adopt a consistent approach to using smartcard technology – enhancing the privacy and security of cardholder information, providing greater convenience in accessing government services and protecting government-issued smartcards and related systems. The Framework will enable agencies to design and deploy business process improvements, efficiencies and cost reduction through smartcards..."

- Breaking Mifare DESFire MF3ICD40: Power Analysis and Templates in the Real World
- by David Oswald and Christof Paar. Cryptographic Hardware and Embedded Systems – CHES 2011. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2011, Volume 6917/2011, 207-222, DOI: 10.1007/978-3-642-23951-9_14. "Abstract: With the advent of side-channel analysis, implementations of mathematically secure ciphers face a new threat: by exploiting the physical characteristics of a device, adversaries are able to break algorithms such as AES or Triple-DES (3DES), for which no efficient analytical or brute-force attacks exist. In this paper, we demonstrate practical, noninvasive side-channel attacks on the Mifare DESFire MF3ICD40 contactless smartcard, a 3DES-based alternative to the cryptanalytically weak Mifare Classic [9,25]. We detail on how to recover the complete 112-bit secret key of the employed 3DES algorithm, using non-invasive power analysis and template attacks. Our methods can be put into practice at a low cost with standard equipment, thus posing a severe threat to many real-world applications that employ the DESFire MF3ICD40 smartcard..."

- Sydney suffers late running of transport card
- by Jacob Saulwick. The Age, June 4, 2011. "It is still a long way off, but the troubled Tcard is already becoming obsolete, writes Jacob Saulwick. By the time Sydney gets its public transport ticketing system, some major world cities will have moved on to systems that do not need tickets. London plans to scrap its Oyster card - which Sydney's Tcard is being modelled on - by the end of next year for a system that allows commuters to pay for journeys by swiping debit or credit cards..."

- Use of ISO/IEC 24727 - in pdf format (740kb)
- (This document requires the use of Adobe Acrobat Reader). ISO/IEC 24727 Identification cards - Integrated circuit cards programming interfaces. Service Access Layer Interface for Identity (SALII): support for development and use of interoperable identity credentials. NIST Interagency Report 7611, by Hung Dang, Hildegard Ferraiolo, William MacGregor, Ketan Mehta, Teresa Schwarzhoff. Computer Security Division Information Technology Laboratory, National Institute of Standards and Technology, August 2009. "Major Federal Identity Management Systems (IDMS) have chosen to use Integrated Circuit Card (ICC) technology, also referred to as smart cards, for their identity credentials. Smart cards are portable and their inherent security capabilities make them well suited for identity credentials. The information and security requirements of an application on a smart card (referred to as card-application) are determined by an issuing agency in support of their IT enterprise infrastructure. Information, requirements, and card-applications can vary from agency to agency, with numerous methods available to use and store information on smart cards. The legitimate variability results from differing requirements and can result in duplication of similar services and interoperability limitations. For instance, a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Card and Transportation Worker Identity Credential (TWIC) Card may not be easily and interoperably authenticated by the same application (referred to as client-application). These two cards support similar but not identical requirements and use different authentication mechanisms and security protocols..."
