• Most existing applications are based in communication technologies which are weakly adjusted to different nets in addition to its own net used for transactional captures.
• When it is time to open new communication ways by using different nets, it is necessary the developement of more applications. This is a complex task that besides supposes the need of knowing these new worlds.
• Joining these new applications with the current capture and management systems generates problems, stoppings and inconveniences with the currently running system, during the developement, the testings and the start of these new applications. These problems and stoppings generate operative damages in our business.
• Sometimes the need of openning to these new proceedings forces to remove applications that still haven't been recovered.
• Worrying about security is evident and it increases when our system is connected to new environments.
In order to satisfy these challenges, our solution makes the necessary technic requirements to offer these characteristics:
• Net Acquirer is installed in hight availability platforms, in order that both hardware and software configuration allow making maintenance without interrupting the transaction capture system management.
• To prevent non predicted or unauthorized accesses to the corporate net, without causing any interference with the current systems of the transaction process, Net Acquirer appears in a physically isolated environment, it is connected at application level with the existing authorization systems, so that it can carry out the interconnection with several remote local authorization centers at the same time, protecting the investement made in the authorization centers and causing as less work as possible to system administrators at the time of openning new transaction acquisition ways.
• The communication from the different transaction adquisition environments with the gateway , uses the standard encryption algorithms, triple DES, RSA, to give maximum security and confidentiality to the content of the captured operations.
• Net Acquirer architecture offers high scalability, allowing to add new transaction adquisition ways as the finantial entity has the necessity of accepting them. Simply, additional capture modules are inserted, which can be standard or customised, depending on the nature of the new transaction to be captured, and it doesn't matter if the transaction is received in different communication protocols.
