Trust StrongBox is the most secure payment processing platform available, with 3DES DUKPT encryption magnetic card reader, SSL-protected interface, and multi authentication security.
Why Use iTrust StrongBox?
With PCI-certified secured servers and end-to-end data encryption, the iTrust StrongBox security design far exceeds existing PCI-DSS requirements for handling card data.
Why use a 3DES DUKPT card reader?
iTrust StrongBox encrypts the credit card data with thousands of single-use encryption codes.
As the data is read from the payment card, encryption at the card reader level prevents hackers or dishonest employees from stealing sensitive card data.
Card readers used by iTrust StrongBox require device/host authentication to send data.
By utilizing multi-factor authentication and encryption, the iTrust StrongBox reader can only be used with each assigned merchant account and cannot be used to send information to any unauthorized account.
Why can’t I store the card information in an encrypted file on my own computer?
PCI-DSS does allow merchants to keep sensitive card data on-site, however, there are restrictions as to what kind of data can be kept and how is to be stored.
These restrictions require the merchant to render sensitive card data unreadable,and to electronically and physically secure the data.
They also must regularly test their security systems, and monitor all access to the network and card data.
They must set up and maintain a firewall that restricts the network’s internet access.
