BS EN ISO/IEC 7816-4:1996 is a standard that specifies the organization, security, commands, and responses for the interchange of data between integrated circuit cards (smart cards) and card-reading devices. This standard is part of the ISO/IEC 7816 series, which covers various aspects of smart card technology.
Specifically, BS EN ISO/IEC 7816-4:1996 focuses on the Interindustry commands for interchange, defining the structure and format of commands and responses exchanged between the card and the interface device (e.g., card reader). These commands and responses enable the communication and functionality of the smart card in various applications, such as financial transactions, identification, telecommunications, and more.
The standard outlines the following key areas:
1. Logical Structure and Coding of Commands and Responses: It defines the structure of commands and responses in terms of data fields, coding, and data organization.
2. Data Elements and Data Objects: It specifies the data elements and data objects used in the commands and responses, including their meanings and purposes.
3. Command and Response APDUs (Application Protocol Data Units): It describes the structure and content of Application Protocol Data Units used for communication between the card and the interface device.
4. Security Attributes: The standard addresses security aspects related to the interchange of data, including authentication and confidentiality mechanisms.
5. Selection of Commands: It defines the convention for selecting and using commands and responses in a standardized way.
It's important to note that technology standards are periodically updated to address advancements and address potential vulnerabilities. Therefore, it is possible that newer versions of the ISO/IEC 7816-4 standard exist beyond the 1996 edition. Always refer to the latest version of the standard for the most up-to-date information and compliance.
