Want to be on trend with modern secure identification technologies in access control systems?
The multi-standard U-PROX Desktop reader with USB interface now supports Mifare DesFire secure identifier technology – a family of 13.56 MHz contactless chips compatible with the ISO/IEC 14443 A standard.
At the request of our foreign customers and foreign companies currently operating in Ukraine, U-PROX engineers have made it possible to use DesFire technology for our ACS.
The new firmware for the U-PROX Desktop USB reader allows the issuance of encrypted DesFire identifiers/cards of all generations of this technology currently available: EV1, EV2, EV3. Desktop readers by U-PROX are also capable of reading these cards in encrypted form.
So, what is DesFire (Data Encryption Standard Files with Random Access) technology?
It was created in response to the hacking of Mifare Classic cards, which date back to 1994, even before the advent of Mifare Plus in 2008.
In 2002-2004, DesFire EV1 appeared, and the evolution continued with improvements in security, speed, number of supported files and applications, memory, compatibility with mobile platforms, and IoT support. In 2016, EV2 appeared, and in 2020, EV3.
Where is DesFire used?
Many transport and payment systems run on DesFire technology, making these cards attractive for use as identifiers in access control systems alongside other “projects” recorded on them.
