WHEREAS THE LARGEST SIM CARD VOLUMES will be generated from the above-men-tioned segments in the near future, most of todays discussions revolve around so-called Multimedia SIMs. Compelling applications are supported by additional interfaces, such as USB for a high-speed data transfer or SWP (Single Wire Protocol) to allow SIM-centric contactless-use cases. With this totally new SIM approach, a cell phone can become a transport ticket, as well as a contactless payment card. In order to grow into this role, the SIM requires more computing power and the highest (certifi ed) security levels. In...
