1.0. Introduction
ACR83 PINeasy is a USB reader featuring a keypad and display, supporting Secure PIN Entry (SPE).
The PIN (Personal Identification Number) is securely entered on its keypad and then authenticated
within the device. Since the PIN is entered into the secure ACR83 PINeasy rather than the vulnerable
personal computer or workstation, the possibility of a Virus/Trojan or USB sniffer getting hold of the
PIN is eliminated.
ACR83 PINeasy, which fits perfectly on the palm of your hand, is one of the smallest PIN-pad readers
in the market. To authenticate yourself, all you have to do is to connect the reader to the USB port of
a computer, insert the smart card, follow the command on the LCD and enter your PIN.
Additionally, the ACR83 PINeasy is compliant with major computing, banking and safety standards
such as Microsoft® WHQL (Windows Hardware Quality Labs), PC/SC, EMV™ Level 1, CE and FCC,
equipping ACR83 to be a device that you can trust.
