Secure Transaction Processing

“Ensuring security for your transactions”

The evolution of computing platforms, security techniques, and migration to IP technologies has had a significant impact on electronic processing systems for transactions. Traditionally, connectivity to banks, card acquirers, and financial entities had been restricted to the use of legacy connections – typically via X.25 and telephone dial-up lines. These analog private connections provide a high degree of security to ensure data confidentiality and safety. However, because these networks were not designed to handle large processing volumes, businesses have to look for new ways to improve the efficiency of their current operations.

The Secure Transaction Processing product offering includes:

AccessGuard 500™ System
The AccessGuard 500 system is a compact IP transaction accelerator designed to process secure IP-based transactions in excess of one million each hour. The AccessGuard 500 system consolidates various functions including security, routing, protocol handling, management and reporting into a single condensed solution, while shortening the transaction time to help reduce the transaction cost. It also reduces network operation costs by using the “less secure” public Internet to provide secure transaction connections.

Total Control® 1000
The UTStarcom Total Control® 1000 Transaction Gateway offers the market a proven processing platform for carrier-class transaction network service providers and enterprises for dial-up connectivity. The gateway enables fast transaction processing of credit card authorizations, debit card fund transfers, health benefit authorizations, electronic benefits transfers, and other communications involving single session transfer of small amounts of data. Transactions over either IP or legacy X.25 networks are supported.

AccessView Accounting Server
The AccessView management and reporting server integrates with either the AccessGuard 500 system or the Total Control 1000 Transaction Gateway to deliver improved network management and reporting.

Off-Line Configurator
The Off-Line Configurator software tool automates the configuration of a Total Control 1000 Transaction Gateway, improving the efficiency of network installations and upgrades for these elements.

Common Element Manager
The CEM software server and client combine to standardize and automate the management of SNMP managed network elements.
