EMV® 3-D Secure (3DS) is a messaging protocol that promotes frictionless consumer authentication and enables consumers to authenticate themselves with their card issuer when making card-not-present (CNP) e-commerce purchases. The additional security layer helps prevent unauthorised CNP transactions and helps protect the merchant from exposure to CNP fraud.
The three domains consist of the merchant / acquirer domain, issuer domain, and the interoperability domain (e.g. payment systems). EMVCo has created, owns and manages the EMV® 3-D Secure – Protocol and Core Functions Specification v2.2.0 and related industry materials.
EMVCo has also made available the full EMV® 3DS Test Platform, which enables the functional testing of EMV® 3DS solutions. Letters of Approval are currently being issued for those 3DS products that have successfully tested against version 2.1.0. A list of approved products can be found on the EMVCo website. Products submitted for EMV® 3DS v2.2.0 compliance testing will also be tested against EMV® 3DS v2.1.0 to receive an EMV® 3DS v2.2.0 Letter of Approval.
