A microchip card (5) has contact points (6) linked to a processor (7) and produced via electrical connections between the processor and corresponding contact points in a reader device/computer as the microchip card is inserted. The microchip card has a sensor (8) to detect a user's fingerprint. The corresponding finger is laid on the sensor as it is inserted. An Independent claim is also included for a system for authorizing a user's access to confidential data and areas of a data-processing device, for a security medium with a processor and a memory of multiple access codes.
