Generate, translate and verify PIN data - AWS Payment Cryptography

Generate, translate and verify PIN data

PDFRSS

PIN data functions allow you to generate random pins, pin verification values (PVV) and validate inbound encrypted pins against PVV or PIN Offsets.

Pin translation allows you to translate a pin from one working key to another without exposing the pin in clear text as specified by PCI PIN Requirement 1.

Note

As PIN generation and validation are typically issuer functions and PIN translation is a typical acquirer function, we recommend that you consider least priviledged access and set policies appropriately for your systems use case.
