Smartcard and RFID: open source software and tools
Research into smartcards and RFID - more in particular, on Java Card-based smartcards - in our research group has led to several open source projects for smartcard applications over the years:
- JavaCard XMSS, a JavaCard implementation of the post-quantum XMSSMT signature scheme by Joost Rijneveld. This was a collaboration
with the Netherlands National Communication Security Agency (NLNCSA). There is also a paper about this.
- JMRTD, an open source implementation of the international standard for electronic passports (aka Machine Readable Travel Documents).
Based on this project Innovalor has gone on to develop ReadID - NFC Passport Reader Android app.
- OpenEMV, an open source implementation of (one variant of) the EMV protocol for electronic payments.
- ISO-DL, an open source reference implementation of the international standard for Electronic Driving Licences (ISO18013).
This development,
by Wojciech Mostowski, was sponsored by RDW, the Dutch Department of Road Transport.
- JavaCardSign, a Java Card smartcard application for creating digital signatures, following the ISO7816 standard (parts 8 and 15).
- JavaCardOpenPGP, a Java Card smartcard implementation of the OpenPGP card.
- Java Card Firewall Tester, a suite of programs to thoroughly test the firewall mechanism on a Java Card smartcard.
We also have software for reading information from the ChipKnip, the old Dutch electronic purse system, which is no longer in use.
