The Key aspects to e-Payment security are:
- Strong Authentication Mechanism (Digital Certs,Smart Cards,PKI etc.)
- Back-end Protocol validation with the financial institutions.
- Transactions through encrypted channel (SSL).
- The information regarding the Payment details should be stored as encrypted Data inside the Database.
- Payment application should be built using strong cryptographic capability.
- Support for e-Payment technologies/Protocols like SWIFTNet for IP, a messaging standard for exchanging mission-critical financial information and transactional data, which is likely to support additional financial network communications standards in the future.
