VirtuoSimo™ focuses on interoperability. The 3GPP TS 11.11 standardises a vast majority of commands. However, some important administration functions are not included in this specification (file creation, file deletion, presentation of administrative code, etc.). As a consequence, without the specific knowledge of the command values on a case-by-case basis, it would be untrue to pretend that VirtuoSimo™ works seamlessly with any Java SIM cards.

That is why Bantry Technologies has signed an agreement with all the major card vendors to be in the position to use VirtuoSimo™ with all Java SIM cards for all commands.

This is of mutual benefit, since it enables card vendors to have an additional proof of interoperability of their cards against the standards. Bantry Technologies' team is happy to welcome more cards into the VirtuoSimo™ platform and as a promise to their partners, the technical team commits to develop for free the related card plug-in.

This issue should be resolved with the USIM environment, since the commands are specified with a number of options.

To date, the following companies are already committed to working with Bantry Technologies on these aspects:

• Axalto
• Gemplus
• Oberthur
• Giesecke & Devrient
• Incard
• Oberthur Card Systems
• Sagem
• Microelectronica Española
• Setec
• Aspects
• Logos Smart Card A/S
• I'M Technologies
