UL to facilitate market adoption of 3-D Secure with an enhanced version of UL's Self-Test Platform that streamlines the process of testing and approval of 3-D Secure components by making it scalable, user-friendly and web-based
LEIDEN, Netherlands, Aug. 15, 2018 /CNW/ -- Following the recent announcement by EMVCo, UL, the industry leader in interconnected and cashless solutions, today announced the launch of a versatile web-based platform to support ecosystem stakeholders in advancing the next generation of 3-D Secure.
Based on the latest EMV® 3-D Secure Specification, this new web-based test platform provides an environment where product providers, PSPs, merchants and issuers can perform tests, while they are building and enhancing their 3-D Secure components. Moreover, stakeholders can request approval services from UL's 3DS Testing Laboratory through the platform, cutting down their time-to-market and reducing process complexity.
The platform provides a one-stop EMV 3-D Secure implementation and certification solution. The platform has been validated by a number of beta customers this spring and is now available to all players wishing to implement EMV 3-D Secure in a more automated, user-friendly and scalable way.

About EMV 3-D Secure
EMV 3-D Secure is a messaging protocol that enables consumers to authenticate themselves with their card issuers when making card-not-present (CNP) purchases or verifying their identity for various non-payment activities, like adding a payment card to a digital wallet. The exchange of data between the merchant using 3-D Secure and a card issuer to authenticate a cardholder reduces the risk of fraud.
