MIFARE® DUOX® 8k White PVC Smart Card, Gloss Finish

MIFARE DUOX 8K is NXP’s first contactless IC to bridge the gap between symmetric and asymmetric security. Unlike traditional cards, DUOX integrates ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) alongside standard AES, making it the premier choice for modern Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) ecosystems. This card is specifically designed for high-stakes environments like EV charging, automotive access, and government-grade identification.

What Sets DUOX Apart?

• Asymmetric & Symmetric Cryptography: The "Duo" in the name refers to its ability to handle both ECC (asymmetric) for simplified key management and AES-256 (symmetric) for high-speed transactions.
• EAL6+ Security: A step above the EAL5+ standard found in many DESFire cards, providing the highest level of Common Criteria certification for both hardware and software.
• EV Charging & Automotive Ready: Built to meet ISO/SAE 21434 standards, it includes an extended temperature range for reliable outdoor use.

Primary Use Cases

• EV Charging Authentication: Simplifies offline signature validation and secure billing without needing a SAM (Secure Access Module) in every charging pole.
• Secure Car Access: Automotive-grade reliability for digital key solutions.
• Enterprise PKI Access: Enables IT departments to manage credentials using public/private key pairs, eliminating the need to distribute master symmetric keys to every reader.
• Multi-Application: Post-issuance application management enables you to add services (such as loyalty or transit) even after the card is in the user's possession.

Personalization Options (on request):

• Chip encoding
• Full color or single color printing at the time of manufacture for a bank quality finish
• Card Numbering
• Card personalization including employee details, photographs etc
• Card fulfillment and mailing options.
