IOGEAR Portable Smart Card Reader, TAA Compliant

The IOGEAR Portable Smart Card Reader is the perfect communications medium between a Smart Card and a host. Keeps the GSR203 Portable Smartcard reader in your backpack, briefcase, or even pocket. The slim design with tuck-away and clip USB cable makes transportation effortless. The traditional credit card uses a magnetic-stripe which stores a very small amount of information and has no processing capability of its own. Smart Cards are the next generation of secure and user friendly identification, authentication & data storage solution. The IOGEAR USB Smart Card Access Reader uses a contact system where the card must be swiped through the card reader; this type of reader is less prone to misalignment and eliminates the possibility of being misread. Government, healthcare, banking and entertainment industries require secure logins / authentication to access information, sensitive data, or private areas. Smart Cards are the next step in this convenience and security. It is listed on the Approved Product List and is TAA compliant product. Users can go to the following website for more info.
