In some embodiments, the non-card shaped body of the device is a non-card shaped body of a device issued to the account holder. In some embodiments, the communication device is a communication device issued to the account holder. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes an identification token having a wireless interface; a non-card shaped body that encloses the identification token; and an electrical connector attached to the non-card shaped body and adapted to be electrically connected to a communication device; the identification token to communicate with a proximity coupling device via the wireless interface, and to reset a security parameter in the identification token in response, at least in part, to at least one signal from the communication device.
