Payment Systems & Security Architecture
PCI DSS Level 1 compliance, P2PE point-to-point encryption, secure gateway integration, and field-device security across public transit, utilities, and citizen services.
Designing payment systems that minimise compliance scope and secure cardholder data.
Accepting card payments in public services, transit validators, and contact centres brings strict PCI DSS audit obligations. Without intentional architecture, payment scope bleeds into corporate networks, database servers, and agent desktops, dramatically raising compliance costs and vulnerability risks.
With P2PE (Point-to-Point Encryption) and Hardware Security Modules (HSMs), clear cardholder data is encrypted at the exact point of interaction and decrypted only in certified Hardware Security Environments, isolating your merchant network from PCI scope.
