The objective of this project is to develop a secure card payment system that replaces sensitive card information with tokens while aligning with PCI-DSS compliance standards. The system enhances payment security by reducing direct exposure of cardholder data during transactions.
Study PCI-DSS security standards and compliance requirements for card payments.
Understand tokenization concepts and how they reduce payment risks.
Design system architecture separating payment processing and token storage.
Implement token generation logic replacing card numbers with unique identifiers.
Encrypt card data before temporary processing.
Ensure tokens are stored securely without retaining original card information.
Implement secure APIs for merchant integration.
Log transaction activities for compliance auditing.
Test system behavior under simulated payment scenarios.
Evaluate security improvements compared to traditional card storage systems.
Document compliance measures and security challenges.
