What atsec offers
atsec China is accredited as a Card Production Security Assessor (CPSA) Company by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council (SSC) to validate an entity’s adherence to the PCI Card Production and Provisioning Logical Security and Physical Security Requirements (two separate security standards). Currently atsec provides the PCI Card Production Logical Security and Physical Security Standards assessment services in the CEMEA, Canada, Europe, LAC, USA and Asia Pacific market.
The PCI Card Production and Provisioning Logical Security Requirements (“PCI Card Production Logical Security Standard”) addresses the logical security controls associated with card production and provisioning such as:
- EMV data preparation
- Pre-personalization
- Card embossing
- IC and magnetic-stripe personalization
- PIN generation
- PIN mailers
- Card carriers
- Distribution
PCI Card Production and Provisioning Physical Security Requirements (“PCI Card Production Physical Security Standard”) define a comprehensive source of information for entities involved in card production and provisioning, which may include manufacturers, personalizers, pre-personalizers, chip embedders, data-preparation, and fulfillment. The standard specifies the physical security requirements and procedures that entities must follow before, during, and after the following processes:
- Card Manufacturing
- Chip embedding
- Personalization
- Storage
- Packaging
- Mailing
- Shipping or delivery
- Fulfillment
In addition to the card production activities above, the two standards describe the logical and physical security requirements for entities that:
- Perform cloud-based or secure element (SE) provisioning services
