Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Smart cards require a personal identification number (PIN) to authenticate the user. This helps ensure that the person using the card is the authorized user and not someone else who may have access to the card. Social Security numbers and private keys are also used for authentication in some systems, but they are not typically used with smart cards. Public keys are used for encryption and digital signatures, but they are not related to user authentication.
