Countermac Limited

Countermac Limited is a computer software company specialising in firmware development for Smart cards and Hardware Security Modules (HSM).

Technology can often steal our time and attention. Countermac prides itself on making: simple, robust and maintainable solutions.

Smart card chips come embedded in a multitude of different form factors: credit-cards, keyfobs, standard/micro/mini SIMs, Mobile-Phones, SDCards, USB sticks; they have become a critical component for secure client authentication for both business and personal use. HSMs provide improved capacity and performance over Smart cards, and can encompass a much wider scope of business logic within a trusted execution environment.

When data must be unique, authentic and kept secret it is vital to have the security sensitive operations performed within the tamper resistant confines of a Secure Element.

Nearly all modern mobile phones now come with a Near-field communication (NFC) adapter. NFC tags and Smart cards can be used for 2-factor authentication, electronic wallets and advertising. Countermac can help you utilise NFC tags and Smart cards within your mobile application.
