Introduction to Financial Remote Key Loading (Part 3)
by Futurex on July 30th, 2018In order for the endpoint device (whether an ATM, Point of Sale terminal, or IoT device) to receive symmetric encryption keys for PAN or PIN encryption, it must first establish a secure connection with the remote key platform. PKI is a form of asymmetric cryptography where the sender and receiver use public and private keys to both decrypt messages and verify each other’s identity. PKI allows the endpoint device and the RKL platform to verify each other’s identities and securely exchange keys. In this blog post, we outline the primary cryptographic techniques used for remote key loading to ATM, Point of Sale, and IoT devices.
