No wonder, e-commerce has completely revolutionized the workflow of entire business ecosystem. Every next day, we observe a bunch of announcements pertaining to new ventures coming up with their online presence. Well! there is no doubt that e-commerce is one of the finest platforms used to reduce the gap between any product and its targeted audience. It plays a starring role to improvise the revenue of any organization. If you are an online retailer, then it is mandatory to adhere the latest data security standards to capture, use or store cardholder’s information for any financial transaction. In other words, online retailers are required to follow the PCI DSS E-Commerce guidelines that narrate the responsibilities pertaining to cardholder’s data, payment processing and network security. Here comes the hardware security module in the picture.
In e-commerce, the transactions may be of various types that require management of orders, invoices, logistics, customer queries, partner programs, and much more. But, in order to build trust among online audiences, you need to make sure that your web property is facilitating the user to connect and communicate in a secured environment. Therefore, organizations make use of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for transmitting data across the TLS connection. The process of encrypting and decrypting data in a secured way requires public key and private key respectively. Public key is used to encrypt the data wherein the private key is used for decryption mechanism. Hence, maintaining the secrecy of private key plays a significant role in data security. At present, there are two main procedures of authenticating cardholder’s information online. The first one is known as Cardholder Verification Value (CVV/CVC/CSC, etc.) wherein the user needs to input a specific number while performing an online transaction. And, another method is XML-based authentication (3-D Secure, SecureCode, and more), which requires a 6-digit pin code created by the respective cardholder. Kryptoagile's collection of hardware security modules, is proficient enough to generate and authenticate cards using both methods.
