Re: [Muscle] MCardApplet Getting PIN tries

From: Peter Tomlinson (pwtiosis.co.uk)

 From the viewpoint of someone involved in advising on technical content
of the methods to be used to deliver secure services using smart cards
(i.e. I'm not a software developer), I am very concerned that such a
function is even being suggested. More generally, I have been looking in
vain for any security model work in the MCardApplet area, as changes
should only be made with the agreement of a security group.

DC any comment?

Regards,

Peter
