What is MagneSafe™?

MagneSafe technology has evolved exponentially from its inception in 2006 and delivered the industry’s first Secure Card Reader Authenticators (SCRAs) for secure electronic transactions.

MagneSafe is a digital identification and authentication architecture that safeguards consumers and their personal data. Designed to exceed PCI regulations, MagneSafe leverages strong encryption, secure tokenization, counterfeit detection, tamper recognition, data relevance and integrity, and dynamic digital transaction signatures, which together validate and protect the entire transaction and each of its components.

MagneSafe Technology

A key feature of MagneSafe is MagnePrint® card authentication, a patented, proven technology which reliably identifies counterfeit credit cards, debit cards, gift cards, ATM cards and ID cards at the point of swipe, before fraud occurs.  MagneSafe’s multi-layer security provides unmatched protection and flexibility for safer online transactions.

MagneSafe SCRAs are characterized by their ability to:

  • Read and encrypt cardholder data
  • Generate a unique encryption key per swipe
  • Mutually authenticate the reader and a legitimate host
  • Manage time bound sessions
  • Capture and transmit the dynamic digital identifiers
  • Generate a unique token of the transaction
