5.2.4
Secure handling of the PIN
Your PIN allows you to access your smart card securely. Therefore it is important that no one but you knows
your PIN. Always ensure that your PIN is entered unobserved. Never write the PIN down on the smart card or in
any other places that are accessible by other people. Do not enter the PIN via the keyboard of the PC. Always
use the keypad of the SPR532.
During PIN-entry, please ensure that the SPR532 is working in "Secure PIN-entry mode". You can verify this by
checking the LED status (table "LED-status and acoustic signals").
5.2.5
HBCI- and signature cards
When using the SPR532 with home banking, other finance software or digital signature applications, remove
your smart card immediately after finishing the transaction or signature. Also keep your smart card in a safe
place.
For secure finance and digital signature applications use only processor smart cards which meet the specifica-
tions according to DIN ISO7816 and/or EMV2000, in order to ensure the protection of the personal identifica-
tion data (PIN).
When using the SPR532 in accordance with SigG/SigV, both signature applications and smart cards which have
been evaluated and confirmed in SigG context should be used.
