ANSI X9.8 PIN restrictions

These access control points implement the PIN-block processing restrictions of the ANSI X9.8 standard. They are disabled in the default role. A TKE Workstation is required to enable them.

These are the access control points:

These verbs are affected by these access control points:

  • Clear PIN Generate Alternate (CSNBCPA)
  • Encrypted PIN Generate (CSNBEPG)
  • Encrypted PIN Translate (CSNBPTR)
  • Encrypted PIN Verify (CSNBPVR)
  • Secure Messaging for PINs (CSNBSPN)

PIN decimalization tables can be stored in the cryptographic coprocessor for use by CCA verbs. Only tables that have been activated can be used. A Trusted Key Entry workstation is required to manage the tables in the coprocessors.
