Embodiment Construction

[0037] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0038] (Brief structure of card reader 1)

[0039] figure 1 It is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of the card reader 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention. figure 2 (a) is a plan view of the card 2 . figure 2 (b) is in figure 2 (a) The cross-sectional view obtained after cutting at the I-I line.

[0040] The card reader 1 of this embodiment is a card reader to which various devices are detachably connected.

[0041] The card reader 1 is a device that reads data recorded on the card 2 and records the data on the card 2, and is used by being mounted on a predetermined higher-level device 3 such as an ATM (Automated Teller Machine: automatic teller machine), for example.

[0042] The card 2 is, for example, a vinyl chloride card with a thickness of about 0.7 to 0.8 mm. Such as figure 2 As shown, an IC chip 22 is embedded in the...

Abstract

The invention provides a card reader with high security even during replacement of equipment and a method of controlling the card reader. The card reader (1) can connect a plurality of types of devices. A connection detection unit (110) is configured to check the connection of a new device. A device discrimination unit (120) is configured to calculate the security level of the equipment. The device discrimination unit (120) sets the security level setting (430) as high if the calculated security level is higher than the security level set in the security level setting (430) of the apparatus. The device discrimination unit (120) compares the security level with the security level of the security level setting (430) of the apparatus when other equipment is detected, and is controlled to enable the other equipment to move in the condition of high or same security level and to enable the other equipment not to move in the condition of low security level.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention particularly relates to a card reader and a control method for the card reader. Background technique [0002] In the past, there has been a card reader in which a magnetic head is made to contact and slide an ordinary magnetic head (hereinafter referred to as "ordinary magnetic head") at a magnetic stripe formed on a card-like medium (hereinafter, simply referred to as "card"), thereby The recorded magnetic information is read, and new magnetic information is written to the magnetic stripe. [0003] Conventionally, in the industry using this card reader, there has been a problem that criminals illegally obtain magnetic information recorded on a card by attaching a signal line to a magnetic head or the like, that is, so-called skimming. Therefore, an encrypted magnetic head capable of preventing the above-mentioned skimming has been proposed (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0004] In the encrypted magnetic head described in P...
