AUSTRIACARD NEW CHIP OPERATING SYSTEM FOR EDGE SECURITY IN IDENTIFICATION-01

AUSTRIACARD is amongst the few Information Technology providers in the world that design chip operating systems for especially demanding security applications in the fields of Payment, Identification and Machine to Machine communication.
