It provides smart card secured access to Microsoft Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 platforms. To discover on which PCs you can install Protectools 2000, go to: www.hp.com/go/support. What is a Smart Card? Smart cards are small plastic cards the size of a credit card that carry a microchip containing memory and a microprocessor. Like personal computers, they have an operating system to manage input/output, and include security features to resist tampering. A Personal Identification Number (PIN) is needed to gain access to the contents of the microchip. This means that you can easily gain access to a computer protected by a smart card only if you have the- correct smart card and you know the PIN. See "PIN Numbers" on page 13 for more information. Smart Card Kit Contents Your HP Smart Card Security Kit contains: • One smart card reader. This is either internal or external depending on your model of PC: • an internal PCMCIA card reader for OmniBook Notebook PCs • an external serial card reader for all desktop PC models • Two smart cards. One spare card is for backup/recovery purposes. • One CD-ROM containing software, drivers and documentation. 12
