As i am interested in Contactless Smart Cards so i have started my own study for information about contact less smart cards security. i have searched for books and articles on contactless smart cards but i cannot find any comprehensive text on contactless smart cards security and standards. Can you please guide where i can find text on contactless smart cards standards, security, attacks on contactless cards, research papers and other useful information on contact less smart cards. <br />
Please guide me from beginning as i am not a technical person.<br />
<br />

Contactless Smart Cards Standards, Security and Attacks?

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.

Security

Network security consists of the policies adopted to prevent and monitor authorized access, misuse, modification, or denial of a computer network and network-accessible resources. Network security involves the authorization of access to data in a network, and covers a variety of computer networks; conducting transactions and communications among businesses, government agencies and individuals. Networks can be private, such as within a company, and others which might be open to public access.

Network Security

Telecommunication occurs when the exchange of information between two or more entities (communication) includes the use of technology. Communication technology uses channels to transmit information (as electrical signals), either over a physical medium (such as signal cables), or in the form of electromagnetic waves. The word is often used in its plural form, telecommunications, because it involves many different technologies.
