Publication date:   Jan 6, 2004

Scope

ISO/IEC 7816-15:2004 specifies a card application. This application contains information on cryptographic functionality. Further, ISO/IEC 7816-15:2004 defines a common syntax (in ASN.1) and format for the cryptographic information and mechanisms to share this information whenever appropriate.
ISO/IEC 7816-15:2004 supports the following capabilities:
storage of multiple instances of cryptographic information in a card;use of the cryptographic information;retrieval of the cryptographic information;cross-referencing of the cryptographic information with DOs defined in ISO/IEC 7816 when appropriate; different authentication mechanisms; andmultiple cryptographic algorithms.
