IC card, portable electronic device, and issuing device
According to an embodiment, an IC card associated with a parent IC card includes a sensor, a first storage unit, a second storage unit, a communication unit, and a processor. A sensor is configured to acquire biological information. The first storage unit is configured to store a template with which the biological information is verified. The second storage unit is configured to store second data related to first data stored in the parent IC card. The communication unit is configured to transmit and receive data to and from a host device. The processor is configured to authenticate a user based on a verification result of the biological information and the template in accordance with a command from the host device, and transmit at least some of the second data to the host device if the authentication of the user is successful.
1 . An integrated circuit (IC) card associated with a parent IC card, the IC card comprising:
a sensor configured to acquire second biological information different from first biological information stored in the parent IC card;
a first storage unit configured to store a template with which the second biological information is verified;
a second storage unit configured to store second data, the second data being instructed to be stored by a storage command from an issuing device that has determined that the parent IC card is authentic and being related to first data stored in the parent IC card;
a communication circuit configured to transmit and receive data to and from a host device;
a first processor configured to perform verification between the second biological information acquired by the sensor and the template; and
a second processor configured to:
authenticate a user based on a verification result of the second biological information and the template in accordance with a command from the host device; and
transmit at least some of the second data to the host device if the authentication of the user is successful.
2 . The IC card according to claim 1 , wherein
the first data includes a first secret key and first certificate information composed of a first public key and a second secret key and second certificate information composed of a second public key.
3 . The IC card according to claim 2 , wherein
the second data includes the first secret key, the first certificate information, the second secret key, and the second certificate information.
4 . The IC card according to claim 3 , wherein
the second data further includes a child ID.
5 . The IC card according to claim 4 , wherein
the second data further includes a password corresponding to the child ID.
6 . The IC card according to claim 3 , wherein
the second data further includes third certificate information based on the first certificate information and the second certificate information.
7 . The IC card according to claim 6 , wherein
the third certificate information includes a first hash value generated from the first certificate information and a second hash value generated from the second certificate information.
8 . The IC card according to claim 2 , wherein
the second data includes either one of the first certificate information or the second certificate information, whichever has a lower security level.
9 . The IC card according to claim 2 , wherein
the second data includes a fourth secret key corresponding to the first secret key and the second secret key.
10 . The IC card according to claim 1 , wherein
the second biological information is a fingerprint image.
11 . An integrated circuit (IC) card associated with a parent IC card, the IC card comprising:
a module including a sensor configured to acquire second biological information different from first biological information stored in the parent IC card, a first storage unit configured to store a template with which the biological information is verified, a second storage unit configured to store second data, the second data being instructed to be stored by a storage command from an issuing device that has determined that the parent IC card is authentic and being related to first data stored in the parent IC card, a communication circuit configured to transmit and receive data to and from a host device, a first processor configured to perform verification between the second biological information acquired by the sensor and the template, and a second processor configured to authenticate a user based on a verification result of the second biological information and the template in accordance with a command from the host device and to transmit at least some of the second data to the host device if the authentication of the user is successful; and
a main body incorporating the module.
12 . A portable electronic device associated with a parent integrated circuit (IC) card, the portable electronic device comprising:
a sensor configured to acquire second biological information different from first biological information stored in the parent IC card;
a first storage unit configured to store a template with which the second biological information is verified;
a second storage unit configured to store second data, the second data being instructed to be stored by a storage command from an issuing device that has determined that the parent IC card is authentic and being related to first data stored in the parent IC card;
a communication-nit circuit configured to transmit and receive data to and from a host device;
a first processor configured to perform verification between the second biological information acquired by the sensor and the template; and
a second processor configured to:
authenticate a user based on a verification result of the second biological information and the template in accordance with a command from the host device; and
transmit at least some of the second data to the host device if the authentication of the user is successful.
