Abstract

An electronic data storage medium is adapted to be accessed by a data terminal, and includes a processing unit connected to a memory device that stores a data file and security reference data possessed by a person authorized to access the data file, and an input-output interface circuit activable so as to establish communication with the data terminal. The processing unit is operable selectively in a programming mode and a data retrieving mode. The electronic data storage medium also includes a function key set for manually switching the electronic data storage medium between the programming mode and the data retrieving mode.

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application is a divisional of U.S. patent application for “ELECTRONIC DATA STORAGE MEDIUM WITH FINGERPRINT VERIFICATION CAPABILITY”, U.S. application Ser. No. 09 / 478,720, filed Jan. 6, 2000.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The invention relates to an electronic data storage medium, more particularly to an electronic data storage medium with a fingerprint verification capability. [0004] 2. Description of the Related Art [0005] At present, confidential data files are stored in floppy disks or are delivered via networks that require passwords or that use encryption coding for security. Confidential documents can be sent by adding safety seals and impressions during delivering. However, the aforesaid are exposed to the risks of breaking of the passwords, encryption codes, safety seals and impressions, thereby resulting in unsecure transfer of information. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0006] Therefore, the object of the pre...
