Verify a PIN Using the VISA PVV Method (Triple-DES DUKPT)

Command:

Verify a PIN using the VISA PVV method.

This command can optionally verify a MAC using a DUKPT MAC Key

Notes:

This command is similar to the CM command. Other than:

·         The ANSI X9.24 2002 method for DUKPT PIN Key derivation is used. This derives a Triple-DES Pin Encrypting Key. CK derives a Single length PIN Encryptng Key

·         Triple Length *BDK is supported using Key Scheme T.

·         DUKPT MAC Verification is supported

The command performs the same function as DC and EC, except the Host supplies the HSM with the information necessary to compute the current key. The PIN Block and the KSN originate from the PIN Pad. The host stores the *BDK and the KSN descriptor.

Source PIN Block formats are restricted to ANSI X9.8 Format 0 and others which produce a different enciphered result for the same PIN when encrypted with different accounts, as required by X9.8.
