Cryptography

cases. Credit card companies have started to introduce the technology of an embedded chip (EMV chip technology) inside of the card. The EMV chip system augments the old magnetic strip cards with a chip that can authenticate a transaction using cryptography (Anderson, R. & Murdoch, S., 24). A computer chip card has the capability to protect sensitive data through encryption, it can authenticate messages that it receives, and can also send more reliable messages to the issuers for an…
