So do not worry, SCAM is not more dangerous than a saw or a hammer. I had never imagined a nerdy program like SCAM would be so popular, just as I had never expected that our homepage on smart cards, HIP Smart Card , would be visited so frequently. Only two weeks after I had put SCAM 3.0 beta online, SCAM was downloaded approximately 400 times already. Smart Cards are popular. More and more companies and organizations are using them and more and more people use them, wether they like it or not.
Smart cards are the current hype.
Companies claim their systems are secure, hackers try to find out if that is the case. All this leads to the big popularity of smart cards. SCAM is not a hype program, but a general, flexible and adaptable program. The program can be used to talk to a smart card interactively or via a script. Applications can be quickly prototyped, and using SCAM's code real applications can be written.
