<p>The invention relates to a security module (1) comprising a security component (2) and an additional functional element (3, 4, 5) that is connected to the security component by means of security-related printed conductors (d, e). The security component is located on a first side of a flexible printed circuit board (10) that comprises several printed-conductor planes. The security-related printed conductors are positioned on at least one first printed-conductor plane of the flexible printed circuit board. A printed-conductor protection structure (15, 16) for detecting external influences on the security module is located on at least one second printed-conductor plane, which lies in front of said first printed-conductor plane containing the security-related printed conductors when viewed from the second side of the flexible printed circuit board that lies opposite the first side. The flexible printed-circuit board is then folded in such a way that the security component (2) and the security-related printed conductors are surrounded by the printed-conductor protection structure. In their folded state, the superposed surfaces of the flexible printed circuit board and the security component lying therebetween are interconnected in such a way that they cannot be detached.</p> |
