Athena Smartcard

The most advanced smart card technology directly from Athena or through our licensed silicon partners.

Athena's mission is to support their partners - card manufacturers, national printers and system integrators with state-of-the art smart card solutions. While some card manufacturers developed in-house chip solutions mainly for payment applications, when it comes to National ID, Digital Signature, eGov, ePassports, Transportation, NFC and advanced contact and contactless payment solutions, development, certification and support is becoming complex, requiring a large dedicated staff with excellent knowledge of cryptography, embedded software, regulations, certification, and standardization. Athena is your smart card technology partner.
