Abstract

In an IC card is sealed an IC chip provided with an exposure sensor . When exposure sensor detects that IC card has been opened, exposure sensor outputs an exposure detection signal to a CPU . In response to the exposure detection signal, CPU provides a predetermined operation, such as erasure of data in a non-volatile memory . As such, the data in non-volatile memory cannot be obtained if IC card is improperly opened to check the data in non-volatile memory . Thus the IC card can obtain an enhanced data security.
