ccid-utils - USB smartcard/RFID driver and development platform

Copyright (c) 2008 Gianni Tedesco

INTRODUCTION

ccid-utils is a USB smartcard driver and development platform. The driver follows a simple synchronous design which supports multiple slots but only one transaction at a time and includes a python interface. It also includes a commandline smartcard shell with a searchable history. The shell, written in python, offers many useful features for developing with smart-cards as well as for reverse engineering APDU formats. The package also includes tools for reading data from GSM SIM cards and EMV credit/debit cards. The SIM tool is very basic but allows reading SMS messages from a SIM. An example EMV (credit/debit) card tool is included which is boilerplate code for utilizing the EMV C API. A graphical interface for reading EMV cards is also provided.
