## What is Smart Card Inspector for PIV?

Smart Card Inspector (SCI) is a professional iPhone and iPad tool for inspecting, troubleshooting, and managing smart cards and security tokens.

Designed for developers, system administrators, and security professionals, SCI helps diagnose issues with PIV cards, certificates, identities, smart card readers, and compatible security tokens directly on iOS and iPadOS.

Smart Card & Token Inspection

Explore certificates, identities, and public smart card data available from connected cards and tokens. Quickly inspect certificate details, review card information, and identify potential configuration issues.

PIV Card Diagnostics

Inspect and validate Personal Identity Verification (PIV) smart cards and analyze their configuration.

SCI can:
• detect connected readers and inserted cards
• read public PIV data objects
• inspect certificates and verify certificate chains
• detect potential configuration problems
• identify reused key material across PIV slots
• export public certificates for external analysis

When a PIN is provided, SCI can also perform identity integrity checks.

PIN & PUK Management

Manage cardholder secrets directly on the card:
• change PIN
• unblock or reset PIN using PUK
• change PUK

SCI provides a focused and native iPhone and iPad experience for working with smart cards, security tokens, certificates, and PIV credentials.
