Data security aspects of a debit card systemBotha, Jacobus Theron 17 August 2016 (has links)
A project report submitted to the Faculty of Engineering, University of the
Witwatersrand, Johannesburg in partial fulfilment of the requirements for
the degree of Master of Science in Engineering.
Johannesburg 1990 / A debit-card is a form of payment, The card is pre-charged with a value,
monetary or otherwise, before distribution to the user, and is therefore a
pre-payment card . It is then 'used up, its value being decremented until
it is valueless. At this point, it is either discarded or re-charged by the
administration authority, It is distinct from a credit card, which provides a
post-payment facility.
The aim of this project is to investigate the security aspects of a debit-card
reader system for use as an unattended fee-collecting subsystem in such
applications as public telephones, parking meters and vending machines.
Card technology and attributes of debit card systems are discussed, an
overview of cryptology is given, and an implementation of a magnetic card
system is described.
