Market Dynamics: Smart Card Market

Opportunity: Blockchain technology enhancing security features

Blockchain can be used to generate and store cryptographic keys in smart cards; this would help users authenticate financial transactions by swiping smart cards. A smart card acts as a vault where the cryptographic key can be stored. When the smart card is connected to the Internet via a POS reader, the key stored in the card can be matched with the key stored in the online library, and the authentication of the user would be done. This would help banks and other ecosystem players secure and authenticate user identity in an improved way, thereby reducing cyber theft practices. In 2016, SETL and Metro Bank demonstrated a blockchain-enabled contactless smart card system to help users utilize cash transaction for shopping applications. MarketsandMarkets believes that the use of blockchain technology by smart card providers will increase in the coming years.

Challenge: Security related to contactless technology

Interrupted operations, service denials, covert transactions, and communication links and dual modes are a few security issues facing the contactless smart card market, potentially restricting market growth. The NFC technology and the development of applications to store credit card information could result in privacy issues—theft, regulatory compliance, etc. Failure to protect decrypted data at the contactless payment gateway increases the vulnerability of PSP databases to intruder attacks, potentially resulting in large payment data compromise. These factors have prompted the governments of several countries to cap the maximum limit of contactless payment.
