  • ACS Offers Robust E-Banking Security with APG8205 Dynamic Password Generator

    HONG KONG, 26 Jun 2013 - Advanced Card Systems Ltd. (ACS, wholly owned subsidiary of Advanced Card Systems Holdings Ltd., SEHK: 8210), Asia Pacific's number one supplier and one of the world's top 3 suppliers of PC-linked smart card readers (Source: Frost & Sullivan), offers the APG8205 to enhance and strengthen security in today’s banking environment. Belonging to ACS’s Dynamic Password Generators product line, the APG8205 provides a two-factor authentication solution that protects online banking customers and merchants alike from malicious attacks. The APG8205 is the next-generation dynamic password generator from ACS that offers a sleeker, thinner and more modern design. Built with a clear LCD and responsive keypad, it enables user-friendly and convenient operations. Beyond its physical attributes, however, it is APG8205’s strong two-level mutual authentication capability that is most noteworthy. By authenticating using two factors-something users have (a MasterCard CAP/ Visa DPA card) and something users know (a PIN)-risks of fraudulent attacks like “Card-Not-Present” scenarios could be greatly mitigated, making online banking transactions much safer. With its compliance to major banking, computing and safety standards, namely, Mastercard® Chip Authentication Program (CAP), VISA Dynamic Passcode Authentication (DPA) and EMV Level 1 Certification, APG8205 is a reader all stakeholders in the banking industry can trust. “With the addition of APG8205 to our portfolio, we hope to empower the banking industry in their fight against the proliferation of fraudulent scenarios within their online banking infrastructures,” explained Mr. Gilbert Leung, ACS VP for Sales and Marketing. “We understand the large losses both banks and customers face due to these fraudulent attacks – financial or otherwise. Thus, we want to provide a solution that effectively addresses security concerns in e-banking.” For more information, please visit http://www.acs.com.hk/en/products/220/apg8205-otp-generator/.   About ACS Advanced Card Systems Ltd.

But developments in mobile devices have presented us with a new challenge. Mobile devices can now perform many functions of a PC, and many users are starting to prefer the former for the majority of their activities. By developing readers that they can use with smart phones and tablets, ACS is enabling true mobility for such users.” ACS has released two new mobile device card readers: the ACR38U PocketMate II and the ACR31 Swipe. The ACR38U PocketMate II is a token-sized device that transforms into a full-sized smart card reader with a single swivel motion. It houses the ACR38 core, which has been proven to meet the requirements of highly demanding smart card applications. The ACR38U PocketMate II supports ISO7816 Class A, B and C (5V, 3V, 1.8V) cards, microprocessor cards with T=0 and T=1 protocol, and most memory cards. With its Micro USB OTG interface, it can support most smartphones and tablets in the market that run on Android™ OS. It is compliant with EN60950/IEC60950, ISO7816, CE, FCC, VCCI, PC/SC, CCID, EMV 2000 Level 1, and RoHS standards, for maximum security and versatility. Meanwhile, the ACR31 Swipe is a phone jack card reader that supports high and low coercivity magnetic stripe cards and can read tracks 1 and 2 of most ISO7810 and ISO7811–compliant cards, as well as cards compliant to JIS1 and JIS2 standards. It uses AES-128 encryption algorithm to secure transactions. The ACR31 Swipe supports most Android and iOS devices. To show the functionalities of the ACR31 Swipe, ACS has developed the ACR31 EasySwipe application, an iOS-based demo that shows the functionalities of the ACR31 Swipe Card Reader. An Android version of the application will also be available on Google Play. ACS will also launch a phone jack card reader that supports magnetic stripe and contactless cards, and a phone jack card reader that supports magnetic stripe and contact cards.
