Hi nikitad209, I recently completed a similar project. Message me so I can show you that sample. Question: For MIFARE Plus EV2, do you want SL3 with ISO 14443-4/7816-4 wrapped APDUs and a logical DF/EF mapping layered over sector/block memory, or a Classic-compatible SL1 layout? Also confirm UID mode (static vs random) and your key diversification choice (e.g., NXP AES-CMAC KDF), so I can finalize access rights. Suggestion: Adopt an SL3 profile with per-card diversified AES keys and three keysets (transport/personalization/operational). Enable full secure messaging (ENC+CMAC), Transaction MAC on all writes, and roll keys post-personalization. Define a DF/EF schema-to-block mapper with versioned EF headers for CRUD. Build a PC/SC layer that auto-detects ACR1552U/Omnikey, negotiates T=CL, performs mutual auth, and runs idempotent personalization scripts. If using SAM AV3, offload KDF and key storage, bind readers to role-based keysets, and enforce proximity check where required. Kindly send me a message, lets discuss in detail and my portfolio is uploaded here and on my website. Best Regards, Sid CTO and Co-Founder of Ekarthaan
