Unified financial issuance solutions from Entrust make it easy to create great client experiences from app to branch and everywhere in between.

MINNEAPOLIS — October 12, 2022 — Entrust, a global leader in trusted payments, identities and digital infrastructure, will be at Money 20/20 USA, October 23-26 in Las Vegas, to demonstrate a comprehensive portfolio of solutions that enable financial institutions to provide a seamless, secure and unified payments experience for their customers.

Consumers expect to exchange money and access their accounts easily. When it comes to enabling the end-to-end payments journey – from remote account opening to mobile banking, e-commerce, in-store payments and more – the stakes are that much higher. Purchasing power, access to funds and the ability to move through daily life hinges on having secure, seamless access to payment credentials when, where and how consumers prefer them. Financial institutions that prioritize a unified digital and physical approach to payments that enables customers from mobile application to transaction increases the likelihood of reaching top of wallet status and driving more revenues.

At Money 20/20, Entrust will welcome guests to a tailored meeting space, where they can see solutions that allow financial institutions to realize a unified digital-first strategy. These demonstrations include:

• Digital Card Solution: The Entrust Digital Card Solution allows financial institutions to quickly and easily give customers what they want: an instant and simplified, digital-first experience. With a single software development kit, adding the latest digital card features to your mobile banking application is easy.
• Click-to-Pay: With Click-to-Pay, consumers are enabled to pay via one click on their mobile phone, sending a tokenized version of their data to complete the payment securely. The Entrust solution allows financial institutions to use push provisioning to Click-to-Pay from their branded banking app in a more seamless, instant, and secure way. And, with more payment giants like Mastercard pushing out Click-to-Pay enablement mandates to issuers, Entrust helps make compliance easier than ever.
• Instant Financial Issuance: The Entrust Instant Financial Issuance Solution allows financial institutions to distribute trusted payment credentials at a rapid speed before they leave their bank’s branch or self-service Interactive Teller Machine (ITMs). This allows consumers to use their cards immediately upon approval, either contactless or via EMV chip insert. Furthermore, Entrust will display its newly released Durable Graphics Light Curing Module, which allows for greater flat card durability and bolder personalization. Increased durability extends card life at a time when EMV chip shortages are driving up costs, while the industry also looks to improve sustainability.

Entrust will welcome event attendees in the Entrust Sky Lounge (Meeting Room #3604), which will emulate the design of an airport terminal in line with Entrust’s mission to secure an ever-moving world. The room design will emulate an airport lounge, complete with runway flooring, screens that simulate flying, and couture aviation-themed furniture. Guests will be able to talk to a team of experts and experience Entrust’s industry-leading financial issuance and payments enablement portfolio in this meeting room.

“Entrust is looking forward to attending Money 20/20 for the opportunity to engage with the world’s banking and payments leaders,” said Tony Ball, SVP & GM Payments & Identity Instant Issuance at Entrust. “We are eager to show our industry peers how we are leading the way in enabling and securing the world’s most important transactions through our digital and physical financial solutions. We’ll be showcasing why a unified, digital-first payments program is critical to delivering best-in-class experiences that wow customers, reduce risk and increase revenues.”

Additionally, Entrust is one of Money 20/20’s four sponsors for the conference’s “Top Drone” experience, themed after the Top Gun movie franchise. The event, which will feature a large drone course complete with lighting & music, will be built into the expo floor and open to all attendees.

Unique light curing module for Entrust Sigma instant issuance systems brings new levels of financial card durability and personalization to bank branches and retailers and other card issuers

MINNEAPOLIS – September 13, 2022 – Entrust, a global leader in trusted identity, payments and digital infrastructure, today announced an innovative new Light Curing Module developed for the Entrust Sigma DS4 Instant Financial Card Issuance Solution. This unique card printing technology builds upon the foundation of Sigma DS4 system’s smart, simple and secure financial issuance platform to deliver flat card personalization with industry leading durability.

Financial institutions are facing rising costs for payment card supplies, including EMV-compliant chips and the cards themselves. By adding more durable cards to their programs, they can extend the life of the cards and, as a result, reduce supply expenses.

Additionally, as more issuers take advantage of the increased flexibility of flat cards in recent years, financial institutions are looking for bolder colors and designs to further personalize and differentiate their brand as well as add additional levels of security. Durable flat text printing capabilities are needed in the instant financial card issuance market to help financial institutions increase card longevity, while also providing bolder personalization options to differentiate from the competition.

Entrust light curing technology has been used to personalize tens of millions of the most modern payment cards in circulation today issued by high-volume payment card providers. Now, Entrust has developed a unique, innovative Light Curing Module for its Sigma DS4 systems, allowing instant issuance providers the opportunity to deliver unmatched flat card durability and brilliance from their onsite instant issuance fleet.

The new Light Curing Module seamlessly integrates into existing Sigma DS4 systems and helps apply a unique, UV-curable, thermal-transfer, monochrome graphics ribbon to pre-printed cardstock. This bright, bold and durable personalization option stands out for its clarity and sturdiness compared to other direct-to-card flat card personalization options available in the market.

“We’ve taken our experience in payment card issuance systems for high-volume clients and applied it to new innovations for our Sigma platform,” said Tony Ball, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Instant Issuance at Entrust. “Leveraging our expertise and technology of more than 50 years in the making, allows us to expand our direct-to-card instant issuance solutions to provide financial institutions the competitive differentiation they need.”

Successful validation by cybersecurity agency allows government agencies to protect their data with nShield HSMs.

SINGAPORE – August 10, 2022 – Entrust, a leading provider of trusted identities, payments, and digital infrastructure solutions, today announced the certification of its nShield Connect XC hardware security module (HSM) product line under the Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA)’s National IT Evaluation Scheme (NITES). This qualifies nShield HSMs for use by Singapore government agencies and reinforces its reliability as a secure solution.

The certification comes at a time when data security threats are getting increasingly more pervasive and complex, raising the demand for products that have been validated by independent evaluation laboratories. This need is particularly prevalent in highly regulated industries and the government sector, where product certification is often a requirement.

The NITES evaluation methodology references international standards such as the Common Criteria (CC) and requires subjecting products to rigorous testing. This certification builds on the qualifications of Entrust nShield HSMs, which have been validated as conforming to the CC Evaluation Assurance Level 4+ (EAL4+) and Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 Level 3 requirements.

The nShield XC HSMs features tamper-resistant protection for key material, quorum-based authentication which adds an extra layer of protection by requiring approvals from more than one HSM user, encrypted access to private keys, and automatic erasure of data upon successful breaches.

“Having our nShield Connect XC HSM product line certified under NITES opens up new opportunities for us to help companies and government agencies protect their data,” said James Cook, vice president sales, digital security solutions at Entrust. “These organisations can know that Entrust solutions have been independently evaluated to meet the stringent NITES standards. The certification is a great milestone for Entrust in continuing effort to deliver industry-leading data protection solutions for our customers.”
