Abstract
A smart tag and methods of interacting with and authenticating interactions with the same are provided. The smart tag (308) is enabled to generate a Tag Authentication Cryptogram (TAC) and include the TAC in response (S303) to a read request (S301). Accordingly, each response generated by the smart tag (308) will include a different TAC. It follows that interactions between the smart tag (308) and a reading device (304) can be authenticated as unique interactions if the TAC is validated as a unique and correct TAC.
