Research Summary
SIM cards, or Subscriber Identity Module cards, are small, removable smart cards used in mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, and some IoT devices to securely store subscriber information and authenticate users on cellular networks. They contain a unique identification number (IMSI) assigned to the subscriber, as well as cryptographic keys and authentication algorithms that enable secure communication with the cellular network provider. When inserted into a compatible device, the SIM card establishes a connection between the device and the network, allowing the user to make calls, send text messages, and access mobile data services. SIM cards come in various sizes, including standard SIM, micro SIM, and nano SIM, to fit different device form factors. Additionally, advancements like embedded SIMs (eSIMs) eliminate the physical card, storing subscriber information directly on the device's integrated circuit, enabling remote provisioning and easier device activation.
