It seems like yet another bandage on the current model, no? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMV#Vulnerabilities http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMV#Vulnerabilities

- raverbashing 13y agoIt may have some vulnerabilities, however the biggest vulnerability is still the backwards compatible magnetic stripe EMV is a more secure than a trivially copyable magnetic stripe. And 3-D Secure is a JOKE.
- dmishe 13y agoSo for pin, you really only need to hack the keyboard right? Either malware in existing one or setup a fake? Is it really that more secure than magnet strip then? I.e. if you have access to install a malicious strip reader, you surely can get access to pin keyboard?

- kalleboo 13y agoThe magstripe reader hack lets you copy the data using the magstripe and then replay it at any other mechant. When you hack a PIN keyboard, all the transactions will still go through the merchant's account, and it's easy to catch the thief.
- raverbashing 13y agoYou only forgot about the chip. It is very difficult to copy, and may even be impossible. Yes, there are pin readers, either a fake keyboard or a camera.
- kalleboo 13y agoSome implementations of 3D secure are better than others. For instance, one of my banks uses a challenge/response system with a separate physical card reader http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3237/2486214902_8feafd8200_b.jpg http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3237/2486214902_8feafd8200_b.j...
