- 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..."

- Popular Smart Card Can be Hacked, Researchers Show
- By Hilton Collins. Government Technology, May 20, 2009. "University researchers have discovered vulnerabilities in NXP's MIFARE Classic card, which belongs to a family of smart cards with more than 1 billion units distributed worldwide. These smart cards are used to access buildings and public transportation systems. One example is the Oyster card, which Londoners use for citywide travel..."

- Smart cards evolving into data servers
- By Joab Jackson. Government Computer News, 10 May 2007. "San Francisco - Although they are as thin as credit cards and hold only minute amounts of data, smart cards are rapidly starting to operate like tiny Web servers, according to Eric Vètillard, chief technology officer for Trusted Labs, a security consulting firm based in Sophia Antipolis, France..."

- Biometric acceptance driven by speed of ID verification
- by Michael Crawford. Computerworld, 4 May 2006. "The convenience of using biometrics for ID verification outweighs any concerns of lax security methods when using smartcards, according to a new survey. A global survey of consumer attitudes to using biometrics found a 5 percent increase in people who favour the use of biometrics as a preferred method of identity verification. Some 10 percent of individuals in the Asia-Pacific region would even prefer a chip implanted in their body..."
