SRC integration.

However, the popularity that came within the growth and more frequent usage left online store vulnerable to possible fraudulent actions, especially since the security related to the storage and processing of card data has not evolved as quickly to comply with all the new modern methods of fraud.

These data are specific to the transaction, so they are uniquely generated and encrypted at the point of payment and decrypted by the issuer. In addition, the Secure Remote Commerce implementation also offers levels of assurance on this data based on how the information on incoming cards is validated. A significant advantage for the merchant is the provision of a standard interface for all cards participating in the SRC program. Thanks to this, the implementation and enablement process will be considerably easier.
