OSPT Alliance releases CIPURSE open security standards for NFC phones

The Open Standard for Public Transport (OSPT) Alliance announced the availability of the CIPURSE V2 Mobile Guidelines, a set of requirements and use cases for developing and deploying CIPURSE-secured transit fare mobile apps for NFC-enabled smart phones, tablets and other smart devices. Providing everything developers need to implement and use the CIPURSE V2 open security standard when embedded in an NFC mobile device, the new guidelines take the CIPURSE standard to the next level by enabling transit operators to enhance their systems to support mobile ticketing with these new form factors.
