EPX Commits to Visa’s Encryption Best Practices

5, Country, Priority, UNITED STATESBy Robert McKinley 10/08/2009

Electronic Payment Exchange welcomes the release of Visa’s data field encryption best
practices. Visa established five key implementation
objectives for payment providers who deploy end-to-end encryption:
limiting the availability of cleartext cardholder and authentication
data; using robust key management solutions that are consistent with
international standards; using key lengths and cryptographic algorithms
that are consistent with international standards; protecting
cryptographic devices from physical/logical compromises; and using
alternate identifiers for business processes that require the account
number after authorization. Using encrypted card readers with the “EPX BuyerWall” solution satisfies
the Visaâs objectives and provides strong protection for merchants
against potential data breaches.
no single technology can completely solve for fraud.
EPXâs solution uses both end-to-end encryption to encrypt card data from
the point of sale, and tokenization on the back end of the transaction
Encryption at the card reader protects merchants against potential
breaches before card numbers even leave the swipe for authorization. “EPX
BuyerWall” tokenization replaces account numbers with values that are
meaningless to would-be thieves and cannot be reverse-engineered to
reveal the card numbers.
