ACOS6-SAM Secure Access Module Card

ACOS6-SAM -  Ideal Solution for Security Enhancement!

The ACOS6 Secure Access Module (SAM) is designed as a general cryptogram computation module or as a security authentication module for Advanced Card Systems' ACOS contact smart cards - ACOS3, ACOS6, ACOS7 and ACOS10, and common contactless smart cards—DESFire, DESFire EV1, Ultralight-C and Mifare Plus.

The ACOS6-SAM card securely stores cryptographic keys and uses these keys to compute cryptograms for other applications or smart cards. Using this, terminals need not know the master key(s) of an application, whereas the keys never leave the ACOS6-SAM.
