In addition to the operating system, the government order will include prototypes of the "next generation" of Datakey cryptographic smartcard. The smartcard is based on the latest Philips model P83W858 microprocessor.

All of Datakey's smart tokens have an on-board microprocessor for performing cryptographic operations. The current processor is in the Philips 80C51-based family of
processors, which includes an on-chip coprocessor for efficiently performing common cryptographic operations.

Convinced of the high-performance security features, Datakey Inc, USA, chose to use the P83W858 as the cryptographic processing chip in their SignaSURE Model 320 Smart Card and Model 370 Smart Key smart-token operating systems. The two tokens are available for use with all the company's SignaSURE product family, designed for
applications ranging from token add-ons for software security programs to enterprise-wide information security solutions including access control, secure e-mail and file transfer and electronic commerce.
Based on the 80C51 architecture, the P83W858 is the world's first smart-card IC to use
a new fully automated design technique called glue-logic design. Glue logic ensures that it
is virtually impossible to tap into the card's information by finding signals or nodes with
which to physically attack the IC. The glue-logic design process will be transferred to all
Philips' smart-card controllers and cryptocontrollers by the end of 1998.
