Abstract
A new generation “smart card” creates a severable invisible “bond” between the cardholder and the smart card itself where this trusted bond relationship is used to enhance and simplify the authentication process during the use. This new smart card is initiated and connected to a specific user using biometric information added to the card and the user using biometric information connects via a trusted bond with the card by pairing the biometric information which can be severed in one of multiple ways. The trusted bond with the smart card can be broken in one of multiple ways including disconnection from a network, distancing from the user, impact accelerometers, outside parameters, etc. The multi-function smart card also uses this established trusted bond with the user to simplify the authentication of the user for use of the card in encrypted computer network, ground security, or other retail and payment function.
