Bell ID software solutions are used worldwide by governments, leading financial institutions and large corporations to manage their identity credentials, payment cards and secure applications. The company’s solutions meet the demanding requirements of international standardization bodies such as EMV (Europay, MasterCard, and Visa). When EMV chip cards are issued, a key management system manages cryptographic keys between authorized parties.

Cryptographic keys are an essential element on EMV tokens and are used for data encryption, decryption, verification, authentication and authorization. Thales ProtectServer and Luna SA integrate with Bell ID’s EMV key management, data preparation, and personalization software to increase the level of security protection.
