NORTH CANTON, Ohio — Diebold, Incorporated's Encrypted PIN Pad has been certified by T-Systems GEI, an independent certification laboratory in Germany, for compliance with the International Organization for Standardization.
Diebold's EPP4 certification complies with ISO 13491-1, ISO 13491-2 and ISO 9564. Certification verifies that ATM devices can protect against fraud, identity theft attempts and more.
"As security risks increase, customers can be sure Diebold ATMs meet all requirements," said Ken Justice, vice president of product marketing and management. "We continuously examine and improve our ATMs to ensure they are secure and able to defend any attempt of fraud or identity theft and that they comply with market standards and specifications."
According to a news release, Diebold anticipates continued certification requirements, which may ultimately apply to the entire ATM rather than just the EPP.
In 2004, the ATM Industry Association recognized Diebold with two awards: "ATM Security Best Technology" and "Best Contribution to Promoting the Interests and Growth of the Industry in the Field of ATM Security."
