End-To-End Encryption (E2EE) Assessment

End-to-end encryption is an excellent way to secure important communications. We provide a fully certified, in-depth assessment of your E2EE solution, tailored to your specific needs and environment.

End-To-End Encryption

End-to-end encryption (E2EE) is a method of secure communication that prevents third-parties from accessing data while it’s transferred from one end system or device to another. No eavesdropper can access the cryptographic keys needed to decrypt the conversation—not even a company that runs the messaging service. 

MegaplanIT can guide your organization throughout the steps of your E2EE assessment, including audit preparation, onsite assessment of data flows and processes, policy and procedure development, secure management of key exchange, storage, and use, trusted advisory and recommendations, and the final delivery of your E2EE Report on Validation.

HOP Computer

A separate key is not required for the decryption of the packet data in the hop computer on the network.

Specific Configurations

The availability of choosing specific configurations helps in higher modularization of the functionality.

Pre-Existing Encryption Solutions

Useful to acquirers with pre-existing encrypting solutions with a non-P2PE architecture (e.g. software encryption or a different back-end).

Flexibility

Greater flexibility to the user in deciding which data to encrypt. Selective encryption provides great help in the case of sensitive data.

File Size

The file size involved is smaller, and the processing uses only a minimal yet sufficient set of resources and encryption time.

Merchants

Useful to merchants when P2PE and NESA solutions weren’t available or feasible.

Key Benefits

What You Get with MegaplanIT's E2EE Assessment

E2EE is an excellent way to ensure important communications remain secure and private. However, properly configuring and maintaining an E2EE solution can be complex, and many organizations lack the skills in-house to do it effectively.

The E2EE assessment service quickly identifies any configuration or process issues that might be present, and our experts provide clear advice and guidance on how to resolve them. Once your E2EE solution is fully up and running, benefits include:

Highly experienced, fully-certified assessors

Work with security professionals who have the expertise and certifications to thoroughly evaluate your end-to-end encryption implementation.

Detect misconfigurations or gaps that could weaken encryption or put your organization at risk of non-compliance.

Ensure sensitive messages and data remain protected from interception, tampering, or unauthorized access.

Receive actionable recommendations and guidance to strengthen your encryption strategy and maintain best practices.

Your Security. Our Insights.

Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE) in the payment card industry involves deploying a recognized solution by the PCI council, where hardware, processes, and technology undergo rigorous testing against the current P2PE Standard v3.1 or earlier versions. The P2PE standard combines a recognized and certified PTS device with software and encryption methods to allow cardholder data to be encrypted upon swipe and transmitted encrypted throughout the merchant environment until decrypted within a decryption environment, inaccessible to the merchant.
In today’s rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape, achieving and maintaining PCI compliance is more critical than ever. With the latest update to PCI DSS 4.0.1, businesses must adapt to meet new standards designed to enhance security and flexibility. This updated PCI Compliance Checklist outlines the essential steps for staying compliant while optimizing your organization’s security posture.
As with many things in popular culture, the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) has many myths associated with it. The PCI DSS has existed for many years and despite the efforts of the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) and industry experts, many misconceptions and myths persist. Below we will cover some common PCI DSS myths vs. the reality.
The PCI DSS standard is largely responsible for dictating the way organizations all over the world approach cybersecurity and the protection of credit card data. As v4.0 of the standard approaches, organizations should aim to identify and plan updates for the aspects of their security and compliance programs that are most likely to be affected.
Employees of companies of all sizes are now either required to shelter in place or State and Government lock-downs are forcing companies to require their employees to work remotely. How will this impact your PCI-DSS Compliance?
