Well, I don't know of any Mondex implementations these days that are not
loaded onto a Multos card (originally Mondex was stand-alone on the
card, of course) but I'm not up to date with recent developments by
Mastercard.
Mondex is peer to peer, although not all peers are the same: in a
merchant terminal the merchant card (they don't call it a SAM) has a
slightly different configuration from a customer card. There wasn't
really any auth process with the terminal in the days when I was involved.

Correct ?

Can you clarify the paragraph with the list of epurse types? In
particular, are you suggesting tht Mastercard has altered Mondex
from its original RSA method to a DES method?
Yes: I'm wrong !
When I worked on a moneo project we had talks about the main
competitor: Mondex. And I was sure they roughly used the same
authentication as Moneo and that the main difference was the fact
Mondex did not have "shadow" accounts in the back office.
My mistake then.
