An architecture is presented that facilitates maintaining a log of near field transactions in a memory module that includes security functionalities and near field communication (NFC) capabilities. The memory module comprises non-volatile memory that stores security software and a security processor that accesses the security software from the nonvolatile memory and performs security functions based on the security software stored. The non-volatile memory is divided into partitions by the security processor. NFC radio frequency (RF) communication capabilities are integrated into the memory module such that the memory module directly interfaces to an external NFC antenna. This facilitates NFC communications within the secure environment of the memory module. Further, the memory module stores data related to near field transactions so that this data can be subsequently reviewed and exported in an appropriate format.
