Level 1 SAMs
Numerous tests are absolutely essential when developing IT systems, and the VDV-KA and (((etiCORE are no different. VDV-ETS offers special Level 1 SAMs for test use, which are functionally identical to the Level 3 SAMs required for subsequent live operation. The Level 1 SAMs are therefore suitable for component tests during the general development of user media or terminals.
The Level 1 SAMs are available from VDV-ETS at a unit price of € 45 plus VAT and shipping, with a flat-rate shipping fee of € 10 for delivery within Germany. Orders can only be placed online via the ASM tool.

The Secure Application Module (SAM) is used as a security module for customer contract partners or service providers and executes the security-relevant functions of the sales terminals and/or control terminals that communicate directly with user media. It can also be used to check the transaction signatures generated with the user medium in the background systems.
The Secure Application Modules (SAMs) used by (((eTicket Deutschland are available in three versions according to the three different security levels of the (((eTicket Deutschland architecture. The respective variants refer to the type and scope of the keys contained.
For tests during the development of system components, we recommend initially working at security level 1 in order to guarantee optimum security and at the same time create real operating conditions for the tests. We offer corresponding Level 1 SAMs for this purpose. All level 1 SAMs contain exactly the same data, i.e. they are generically configured and mutual clones.
In contrast to the Level 2 and Level 3 SAMs, the data on Level 1 SAMs can be loaded outside the highly secure environment of the Trust Centre in eTT . This means that the values of the keys in the Level 1 SAMs are not confidential: Cryptographic calculations, for example, can also be verified outside the SAMs.
