How to Understand Remote Key Injection

PCI PIN 3.1 Certified OTA Remote Key Injection Anywhere

Overview

• WizarPOS has developed a Remote Key Injection (RKI) system that is PCI PIN 3.1 certified, meeting the needs for secure, remote key injection.
• This system allows customers to inject keys into their terminals remotely and securely, particularly useful for those without their own key injection systems or a secure key injection environment.

Benefits of WizarPOS RKI:

• Enhanced Security: Prevents interception or manual manipulation of keys and data.
• Cost-Effective: Reduces the need for personnel training and certification, lowering overall costs.
• Scalability: Ideal for distributors or service providers needing to inject keys into multiple POS terminals at different locations.
• PCI PIN 3.1 Approval: Ensures compliance with industry security standards.

Key Features

• Mutual Authentication: Ensures a secure channel between devices and servers.
• Protocol Support: Complies with TR31 and TR34 key exchange block protocols.
• Key Type Support: Compatible with all major key types.

Developing Remote Key Injection

Integrating to Existing Host Server

• For integrating with an existing host server, provide documentation on how the server works with the terminal side for customized agent adaptor development.
• AIDL Interface: WizarPOS offers two terminal AIDL interfaces, as demonstrated in 'For Systems Without an Existing Host Server'.

    int importKeyInfo(in byte[] keyInfo);
    byte[] getAuthInfo();

For Systems Without an Existing Host Server:

• Developing a remote key injection system from scratch is time-consuming and typically uncertified by PCI, making it suitable only for testing or internal use.
• WizarPOS offers a remote key injection demo system for reference, including:
  • cloudPOS_remote_key_injection_demo_system manual, it describes the whole demo system, and the detail information for the certificates, core process.
  • Terminal APP
  • Server Project
    • Remote_Key_Inject_Deployment.docx, it describes how to deploy and run the keyinjection jar in server.
• The demo uses a certificate that replaces the original terminal certificate. Download the initialize certificate APK and run it to initialize the demo certificate. Clearing the demo certificate is necessary after use.

Note: While WizarPOS provides a comprehensive RKI solution, the demo system is for reference and testing purposes only. When deploying in a live environment, ensure to replace the demo certificate with a valid, secure certificate.
