What is a smart card?

[Carey Frisch [MVP]]

Smart Card:
A credit card-sized device that is used with an access code to enable
certificate-based authentication and single sign-on to the enterprise.
Smart cards securely store certificates, public and private keys, passwords,
and other types of personal information. A smart card reader attached to
the computer reads the smart card.

>Ohhhhhhhh! Thanks! Since I don't use a smart card, Can I
disable it from running at start up?
