This AppNote was developed after the implementation of ActivCard for a Swiss bank. The bank had a requirement for the provision of a system to allow 250 of its top private banking clients to access their account details online. It was therefore decided that an AppNote should be produced on this topic.
Security is provided in a number of ways.
