Virtual machine for
smart card suppliers
ARM SecurJC technology is the first openly licensable Java Card virtual machine solution optimised for ARM SecurCore SC100 and SC200 CPUs
This new technology will shorten the time to market for high performance, high security Java Card technology-based smart cards. Available for licensing now, the ARM SecurJC solution is appropriate for any type of smart card application including SIM (subscriber identity module for mobile phones), secure banking, government identification and contactless mass transit cards.

The ARM SecurJC technology eliminates the need to redevelop an entire Java Card implementation, enabling developers to concentrate on application design and shorten what is traditionally the most time and resource-consuming element in the design cycle.
The use of the SecurJC virtual machine on top of the SecurCore platform makes an additional step in cost-efficiency for 32bit smart cards solutions, while leveraging Java Card applications interoperability across smart card vendors, a key success factor for wide adoption "The growing demand for smart cards is creating a need in the industry for technologies that facilitate the timely delivery of high performance, secure products", said Dominique Lutz, Secure Segment Manager, ARM.
"With the Java Card platform as a de-facto standard, companies that utilise the combination of the ARM SecurJC technology with the ARM SecurCore microprocessors, will benefit from a leading-edge integrated Java Card solution, ready to use for next-generation smart card applications development".
