Atmel's AT91SO101 Helps Achieve PCI Certification and EMV Approval for Thales' Artema S10 PIN Pad

Rousset, France and Velizy, France (ots/PRNewswire)

Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML), announced today that the
recent Payment Card Industry (PCI) and EMV approvals of Thales'
Artema S10 PIN Pad is the result of a long-term collaboration between
the two companies. Thales' Artema S10 PIN pad, which combines high
performance with high security, is powered by Atmel's AT91SO101,
belonging to the AT91SO family of secure microcontrollers for highly
secure systems such as card payment terminals.
The AT91SO101's embedded security mechanisms, designed to reach
Common Criteria EAL4+ certification, were instrumental in obtaining
Artema S10's PCI certification. In addition, approval was achieved
with the AT91SO101's integrated smartcard interface which is already
EMV pre-certified.
Olivier Moraillon, Product Manager at Thales e-Transactions
stated, "These certifications are the result of a fruitful
combination of Thales' innovative drive to provide high-end secure
card payment solutions and Atmel's proven expertise in designing
integrated, quick-processing high security products."
Olivier Debelleix, Atmel's Security Worldwide Tactical Marketing
Manager commented, "Our AT91SO product for secure systems serves the
needs of our customers for security and versatile communication
interfaces. We are proud of Artema S10's EMV and PCI certifications.
This shows that Atmel's expertise in integrated security is a plus
when it comes to serving customers like Thales."
