'''Java Card''' refers to a software technology that allows [[Java platform|Java]]-based applications ([[applet]]s) to be run securely on [[smart card]]s and similar small memory footprint devices.<ref name="Chen 2000">{{cite book | last=Chen | first=Z. | title=Java Card Technology for Smart Cards: Architecture and Programmer's Guide | publisher=Addison-Wesley | series=Addison-Wesley Java Series | year=2000 | isbn=978-0-201-70329-0 | url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=qaG0bwxJ-DEC | access-date=9 April 2019 | page=}}</ref> Java Card is the tiniest of Java platforms targeted for embedded devices. Java Card gives the user the ability to program the devices and make them application specific. It is widely used in [[Subscriber Identity Module|SIM]] cards<ref name="OracleSIM">{{cite web | title=Java Card Technology Overview | website=Oracle | url=https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/embedded/javacard/overview/overview-jsp-135353.html | access-date=9 April 2019}}</ref><ref name="Talukdar 2010 p. 84">{{cite book | last=Talukdar | first=A.K. | title=Mobile Computing, 2E | publisher=McGraw-Hill Education (India) Pvt Limited | series=McGraw-Hill communications engineering series | year=2010 | isbn=978-0-07-014457-6 | url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=4QUiBAAAQBAJ&pg=PA84 | access-date=9 April 2019 | page=84}}</ref> (used in [[GSM]] mobile phones) and [[Automated teller machine|ATM]] cards.<ref>{{Citation|last=Oracle neededLearning Library|datetitle=AprilDeveloping 2010Java Card Applications|date=2013-01-30|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khgT5dwKvOo|access-date=2019-04-18}}</ref> The first Java Card was introduced in 1996 by [[Schlumberger Limited|Schlumberger]]'s card division which later merged with [[Gemplus]] to form [[Gemalto]]. Java Card products are based on the Java Card Platform specifications developed by [[Sun Microsystems]] (later a [[subsidiary]] of [[Oracle Corporation]]). Many Java card products also rely on the [[GlobalPlatform]] specifications for the secure management of applications on the card (download, installation, personalization, deletion).

The main design goals of the Java Card technology are portability and security.<ref>{{cite journal |author1=Ahmed Patel |author2=Kenan Kalajdzic |author3=Laleh Golafshan |author4=Mona Taghavi | year = 2011 | title = Design and Implementation of a Zero-Knowledge Authentication Framework for Java Card | booktitle = International Journal of Information Security and Privacy | pages = 1–18 | volume = 5 | issue = 3 |publisher = IGI | url = http://www.igi-global.com/article/international-journal-information-security-privacy/58979 }}</ref>
