VerifyPinData

Verifies pin-related data such as PIN and PIN Offset using algorithms including VISA PVV and IBM3624. For more information, see Verify PIN data in the AWS Payment Cryptography User Guide.

This operation verifies PIN data for user payment card. A card holder PIN data is never transmitted in clear to or from AWS Payment Cryptography. This operation uses PIN Verification Key (PVK) for PIN or PIN Offset generation and then encrypts it using PIN Encryption Key (PEK) to create an EncryptedPinBlock for transmission from AWS Payment Cryptography.

For information about valid keys for this operation, see Understanding key attributes and Key types for specific data operations in the AWS Payment Cryptography User Guide.

Cross-account use: This operation can't be used across different AWS accounts.

URI Request Parameters

The request does not use any URI parameters.

Request Body

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

DukptAttributes

The attributes and values for the DUKPT encrypted PIN block data.

Type: DukptAttributes object

Required: No

EncryptedPinBlock

The encrypted PIN block data that AWS Payment Cryptography verifies.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 16. Maximum length of 32.

Pattern: [0-9a-fA-F]+

Required: Yes

EncryptionKeyIdentifier

The keyARN of the encryption key under which the PIN block data is encrypted. This key type can be PEK or BDK.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 7. Maximum length of 322.

Pattern: arn:aws:payment-cryptography:[a-z]{2}-[a-z]{1,16}-[0-9]+:[0-9]{12}:(key/[0-9a-zA-Z]{16,64}|alias/[a-zA-Z0-9/_-]+)$|^alias/[a-zA-Z0-9/_-]+

Required: Yes

PinBlockFormat

The PIN encoding format for pin data generation as specified in ISO 9564. AWS Payment Cryptography supports ISO_Format_0 and ISO_Format_3.

The ISO_Format_0 PIN block format is equivalent to the ANSI X9.8, VISA-1, and ECI-1 PIN block formats. It is similar to a VISA-4 PIN block format. It supports a PIN from 4 to 12 digits in length.

The ISO_Format_3 PIN block format is the same as ISO_Format_0 except that the fill digits are random values from 10 to 15.

Type: String

Valid Values: ISO_FORMAT_0 | ISO_FORMAT_3

Required: Yes

PinDataLength

The length of PIN being verified.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 4. Maximum value of 12.

Required: No

PrimaryAccountNumber

The Primary Account Number (PAN), a unique identifier for a payment credit or debit card that associates the card with a specific account holder.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 12. Maximum length of 19.

Pattern: [0-9]+

Required: Yes

VerificationAttributes

The attributes and values for PIN data verification.

Type: PinVerificationAttributes object

Note: This object is a Union. Only one member of this object can be specified or returned.

Required: Yes

VerificationKeyIdentifier

The keyARN of the PIN verification key.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 7. Maximum length of 322.

Pattern: arn:aws:payment-cryptography:[a-z]{2}-[a-z]{1,16}-[0-9]+:[0-9]{12}:(key/[0-9a-zA-Z]{16,64}|alias/[a-zA-Z0-9/_-]+)$|^alias/[a-zA-Z0-9/_-]+

Required: Yes

Response Elements

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

EncryptionKeyArn

The keyARN of the PEK that AWS Payment Cryptography uses for encrypted pin block generation.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 70. Maximum length of 150.

Pattern: arn:aws:payment-cryptography:[a-z]{2}-[a-z]{1,16}-[0-9]+:[0-9]{12}:key/[0-9a-zA-Z]{16,64}

EncryptionKeyCheckValue

The key check value (KCV) of the encryption key. The KCV is used to check if all parties holding a given key have the same key or to detect that a key has changed.

AWS Payment Cryptography computes the KCV according to the CMAC specification.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 4. Maximum length of 16.

Pattern: [0-9a-fA-F]+

VerificationKeyArn
