ExpressCard 1000 Security Policy

MagTek is a leading provider of electronic transaction security. As a manufacturer of card personalization

equipment, MagTek has the responsibility to secure the manufacturing, delivery, implementation and ongoing

use of its card personalization devices.

The ExpressCard 1000 makes debit, credit, ATM and gift cards immediately. All of these plastic cards are

considered legal currency that can be used throughout the world. In cooperation with the Card Organizations

and the US Secret Service, MagTek has a responsibility to the industry and the public at large to ensure that its

machines are only used by responsible, authorized parties and to minimize any consequential damage that may

result from the theft or unauthorized use of the product. MagTek recognizes the threat posed by organized

criminal enterprises, which exploit financial transaction cards for the purpose of Identity Theft and Payment

Card Fraud domestically and internationally.

Credit card service bureaus have traditionally provided card personalization services from controlled, secure

and restricted environments. Consider that the ExpressCard 1000 is a portable service bureau, requiring

equivalent security measures. Guidelines established by Visa and MasterCard, require that card personalization

devices must ship in a deactivated state requiring the financial institution to work in concert with the

manufacturer to enable the machine for card production. ExpressCard 1000 uses a Digital Certificate Device

Authentication method that enables the machine for first use and provides ongoing controlled activation to

ensure that if the device falls into the hands of an unauthorized user, its potential for damage to the payment

industry is minimized. Use of the ExpressCard 1000 Digital Certificate Authentication Method, reduces the card

issuer’s exposure to fraud and limits its liability. This service, provided without charge by MagTek, does not

view, gather or store any proprietary user information or cardholder data. It is a responsible approach to secure,

distributed card issuance. There are two methods of enabling an ExpressCard 1000.

In the first method, the ExpressCard 1000 generates an encrypted challenge and communicates directly to

MagTek’s Certificate Authority (CA) using an SSL connection. Once the ExpressCard 1000 and MagTek’s CA

have been mutually authenticated, a new digital certificate is transmitted to the ExpressCard 1000, enabling the

machine to operate for a predetermined period of time.

The second method utilizes the same process. However, a proxy server on the financial institution’s network

provides the channel by which the request for and the delivery of the Digital Certificate is provisioned. Use of

the proxy server affords financial institutions the opportunity to monitor the traffic to and from MagTek’s CA

and avoids the need for direct communication with the ExpressCard 1000.

In view of the growing need for stronger security to combat criminal enterprises that have become more

creative and brazen in their attempt to terrorize the payment infrastructure, it is the responsibility of

manufacturers, the financial institutions and card associations to create and implement secure infrastructure to

combat the motivated, highly skilled and well funded criminals. In addition to honoring card association rules,

MagTek as a member of PCI DSS, has made a commitment to protect the interests of the industry it serves, and

has taken a strong leadership role in this security effort.

SAFETY

In order to ensure the preservation of safety and integrity features that were designed into this product,

and for which it has been evaluated by the Safety Certification Agencies, compliance with all Installation

Instructions and Safety Requirements is essential.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Caution: Never do any of the following:

• Use a ground adapter plug to connect equipment to a power source receptacle that lacks a ground

connection terminal.

• Attempt any maintenance function that is not specifically described in this Manual or any other

MagTek ExpressCard 1000 Manual.

• Remove any of the covers or guards that are fastened with screws. There are no operator-serviceable

areas within these covers.

• Override or “cheat” electrical or mechanical interlock devices.

• Use supplies or cleaning materials for other than their intended purposes.

• Operate the equipment if unusual noises or odors are noticed.

Consider the following before operating the ExpressCard 1000:

• Connect equipment to a properly grounded power source receptacle. If in doubt, have the receptacle

checked by a qualified electrician.

• Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in risk of electrical shock.

• Locate equipment on a solid support surface with adequate strength for the weight of the machine.

• Be careful in moving or relocating the equipment. Use the proper lifting techniques.

• Use materials and supplies specifically designed for MagTek equipment. Use of unsuitable materials

may result in poor performance and can possibly create a hazardous situation.

1 Introduction

The ExpressCard 1000 (EC1000) is a desktop card production/personalization system that can fully

personalize any CR80 sized Credit/Debit/ATM/Gift card, allowing financial institutions the capability,

speed, and convenience of instant-issuance of financial cards at all branch locations.

When integrated with MagTek’s IntelliCat or MCAPS 3000 instant card issuance software suites

cardholders can also be provided with the convenience and security of consumer-selected PIN

capabilities. All of the security privileges, transaction logs, card inventory, and cardholder databases can

be monitored and controlled from a central location.

The EC1000 is also equipped with a MagnePrint Reference Capture module that allows each

card’s unique MagnePrint signature to be captured and registered as it is issued to the legitimate

cardholder. This registered MagnePrint value can then be used to protect legitimate cardholders

by validating that the card being used at an ATM, Teller Window, Home Banking, or POS

location is authentic, not a counterfeit copy manufactured by criminals.
