scope:

ISO/IEC 7816-4:2004 specifies:____ ________contents of command-response pairs exchanged at the interface,_________means of retrieval of data elements and data objects in the card,_________structures and contents of historical bytes to describe operating characteristics of the card,_________structures for applications and data in the card, as seen at the interface when processing commands,_________access methods to files and data in the card,_________a security architecture defining access rights to files and data in the card,_________means and mechanisms for identifying and addressing applications in the card,_________methods for secure messaging,_________access methods to the algorithms processed by the card. It does not describe these algorithms.__________ ___It does not cover the internal implementation within the card or the outside world. ISO/IEC 7816-4:2004 is independent from the physical interface technology. It applies to cards accessed by one or more of the following methods: contacts, close coupling, and radio frequency.
