Altered Security Tokend for Belpic/Beid
by Maccampus 24 Aug '15

24 Aug '15

Hello, The Belgian Government Agency (Belpic) who is in charge of making software for the Belgian Electronic Identity Card (BEID) has altered the BelPic Tokend from this project. They never have uploaded their changes to this project though. They seem to have taken the Apple Card Services 2.0bx or lower which contains Belpic.tokend 2.2.1 & 2.2. Maybe they took the source files & altered them or they took the Installable files & have hacked them, to add a higher encryption for Version 3 of the Beid Cards. They have not informed you of their changes & their changes are not added to the later versions of your versions of the Belpic.tokend. Rather they renamed the Belpic.tokent to Beid.tokend & even with their latest software they make us Belgian Apple using citizens to install an old version of the Belpic.tokend, instead of altering the later versions as one would atlas have expected. I want to inform you about these changes in hope that you can add them to the latest versions of the Belpic.tokend & inform them about their inappropriate behavior. Maybe also discuss the future name of the tokens to be Belpic or Beid. I have added their versions of the older Tokend which they are currently using, maybe you can extract the changes from those, if not you will need to ask them for the source. They are found here Home <http://eid.belgium.be/nl/> & have an online contactsheet for technical questions Contact - Home <http://eid.belgium.be/nl/contact/contactform.jsp>. They also use a 3th party to develop for them which is Zetes & can be found here, Zetes Industries - Supply Chain & Mobility Solutions | Auto-ID & Goods Identification | People ID Solutions - Zetes Europe, Middle-East & Africa <http://nl.zetes.be/>, or here Overzicht - Kaartlezers Belgische identiteitskaart <http://www.belgeid.be/>. Maybe you might find them to be the one’s that (once) altered & delived your software for the Belpic Agency. I hope you can make them in cooperation with you deliver the latest version of YOUR Belpic/Beid.tokend containing THEIR changes with their software, preferably by adding your complete software installer to their package or a link to your website rather then only the BELPIC/BEID.tokend. They can inform users to only install the Belpic/Beid Tokend. Thanks for making them setting things right.
