GIG HARBOR, WA – POSDATA Group, Inc., a leading North American distributor of secure payment devices, today announced it has partnered with Futurex to offer VirtuCrypt Elements remote key injection (RKI) services. Performing tens of thousands of key injections annually, POSDATA can now remotely and compliantly load cryptographic acquirer, processor and gateway keys into point-of-sale equipment in the field at merchant point-of-sale locations for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) with a VirtuCrypt interface.
“VirtuCrypt Elements positions POSDATA at the forefront of RKI servicing in North America,” said Brett Smith, chairman and principal at Futurex. “We are excited to partner with POSDATA and look forward to providing enterprise-class data security while reducing friction in the merchant key injection experience,” added Smith.
“Our new RKI capabilities provide a faster, automated, highly secure and cost-effective alternative to traditional secure room key injection processes,” said Jeffrey Creighton, chief executive officer for POSDATA. “Our customers and partners will benefit greatly from fast, simple and secure RKI equipment deployments,” added Creighton. “Partnering with Futurex is just another example of POSDATA’s commitment to delivering the latest in payments technology.”
