Friday 22 March 2013 07:44 CET | News

Affina Enterprise smart lifecycle management solution develop by Aconite, a UK-based provider of card payment and mobile management solutions, has been selected as a major part of a new infrastructure to issue and manage multi-application ID cards for an African state.

The GlobalPlatform Javacards will combine a national ID application conforming to the ICAO MRTD standard, a PKI-based authentication application and a prepaid payment application based on international card association and/or local scheme standards.

Aconite’s Affina Enterprise provides a solution for the maintenance of a card population combined which enables post issuance updates to install, delete or upgrade applications remotely on the cards and to activate applications after installation. Affina Enterprise will manage the cardbase through a network of remote devices, maintaining details of the applications installed on each card, the data personalised into each application and changes to the applications and data over the card’s lifecycle. Aconite Affina Enterprise will also manage end-of-life events for the cards, maintaining revocation and block list details.

Aconite helps card issuers, processors, retailers, payments service providers and transit authorities minimize their EMV migration risks and maximize the return on their EMV investment. The company operates in Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia and the Americas.
