Encryption Options

Slim CD supports hardware encryption that allows you to reduce your fingerprint on data as it passes through your network.

  • Devices that can be used on POS, WEB and mobile applications.
  • Support for a variety of hardware encryption techniques, including AES and DES.
  • Automatic hardware-based DUKPT key rotation insures a unique encryption key is used on each transaction
  • Merchants can choose to use a vendor-neutral key that is not restricted by SLIM CD or can have their own custom key created

All mobile device transactions will be required to use encrypted card swipe devices. We recommend developers select the encrypted version of all other devices, as SLIM CD provides decryption services automatically.
