Encryption
Encryption is a technique that is designed to ensure the security of transactions carried out through a public payment system, such as those made through the Internet. The purpose of encryption is to scramble the information in such a way that the original message cannot be deciphered in whole or in part.
Encryption “locks” access to the information, and the intended recipient of the message is the only one who holds the key that is required to unlock it.
Security Protocols
Security comprises the two following components, among others: encryption and the integrity of the data being sent. We ensure that the information that is processed is the same information that was originally sent. This solution operates using reliable protocols in order to comply with a high level of integrality.
