Riscure has been performing security evaluations of smart card IC’s for decades. Our security test tool Inspector, globally considered a golden standard in side channel analysis and fault injection testing, was originally developed with a smart card focus. Some of our long-term customers are smart card vendors and payment organizations. Therefore, we are proud to announce that Riscure is now fully recognized by EMVco for IC evaluations.

Together with Nationz Technologies Inc. we have performed a pilot evaluation as a final step in the EMVco lab accreditation process. On the 24th of March this year, Nationz Technologies Inc. has received an EMVco certificate for their Z32HCD2/Z32HCD2S. At the same time Riscure has become fully recognized as an IC security test lab.

“It was a wonderful and impressive experience!”, says Zhang Mengliang, Manager of Certification of Nationz Technologies Inc. “We admire the professional work that Riscure demonstrated during the EMVCo IC project. With the help of their extraordinary effort, we learned a lot and earned even more”.

“I am proud that our IC security team is fully recognized by EMVco”, says Marc Witteman, founder and CEO of Riscure. “It confirms our reputation as a security test lab, but also as a test tool vendor, because our test techniques and tools are an important part of the EMVco accreditation process. We are looking forward to supporting many IC vendors in their goals to achieve EMVco accreditation”.
