Remote key loading for ATMs and Pos machines

ATM Remote Key Loading – Payment Processing Simplified

The significance of ATM in today’s world can never be overlooked. There is no qualm to say that these smart machines have completely revolutionized the banking sector. Be it withdrawal of money through debit/credit card, checking bank statements or paying bills, ATMs let you perform the basic banking transactions without the aid of any branch executive.

If your organization is responsible for maintaining a network of ATMs, you need to rotate encryption keys. But, rotation of these keys directly may dig a hole in your pocket, as it can be an expensive process. Being an organization, you provide your key administrators with the key components, and they visit every ATM to enter the respective keys. The process of rekeying is not only time consuming, but also requires a large number of technical experts. Moreover, this method restricts conglomerates to opt for shorter key lifecycles for the network of their ATMs, which reduces the overall security.
