IC Card Component 1.3

IC Card Component, developed by Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd., is a system utility that installs the runtime, drivers, and middleware required to use Chunghwa Telecom–issued IC (smart) cards with compatible card readers on your computer. It enables secure, certificate‑based functions—such as user authentication, digital signing, and encryption—across supported desktop applications and web services.

Key capabilities:

• Works with PC/SC‑compliant smart card readers and makes card certificates available to supported apps.
• Exposes standards‑based interfaces (for example, PKCS #11 or Microsoft CAPI/CNG, depending on platform and version) to integrate with browsers, VPN clients, and enterprise software.
• Facilitates PIN entry and related card operations when supported by your card and service.
• Runs as a lightweight background component designed for stable, secure operation with minimal configuration.

Requirements: A supported operating system, a PC/SC‑compatible card reader, and a valid Chunghwa Telecom IC card. Platform and feature availability may vary by release.

Note: IC Card Component is not a standalone end‑user application; it functions as enabling software for services that rely on Chunghwa Telecom IC cards. For downloads, setup instructions, and support, please refer to Chunghwa Telecom’s official documentation.
