Introduction

The CryptoMate EVO contains an ACOS5-EVO cryptographic smart card module. The ACOS5-EVO cryptographic smart card module offers advanced asymmetric and symmetric cryptographic algorithms such as ECC and RSA and is compliant with international standards for PKI smart cards such as FIPS 14-2 (US Federal Information Processing Standards) Level 3 and CC EAL 5+ (chip level). acs

The CryptoMate EVO is similar in appearance to the CryptoMate Nano, but it can be easily distinguished when plugged in the PC with its Green LED. PC applications will
recognize it through its PCSC and Driver Name: ACS CryptoMate EVO. It also offers higher memory and more advanced cryptographic functionalities compared to the CryptoMate Nano.
