Krengel Adds Credit Card Processing to RPG-XML Suite

March 13, 2012 Alex Woodie

Developers who write XML-based Web service programs for IBM i using Krengel Technology‘s RPG-XML Suite now have an easy way to add credit card processing to their apps. The company recently announced that the suite now contains an application plug-in that processes credit card transactions via the Cybersource network.

Krengel’s flagship product, the RPG-XML Suite, is a collection of RPG service programs and APIs that make it easy for IBM i shops to expose their existing RPG apps as an XML-based Web service, and also to allow their existing RPG apps to consume third-party Web services. The software runs entirely on the IBM i server, and doesn’t require any additional software, such as IBM WebSphere.

With the new Cybersource plug-in, Krengel is making it easy to add a payment transaction system onto an ecommerce application developed with RPG-XML suite. The plug-in enables IBM i shops to process credit card transactions, while maintaining compliance with industry requirements and protecting its liability.

The Cybersource plug-in handles all aspects of credit card transactions, including authorizing transactions, capturing transactions, reversing authorizations, and issuing credit. The software also generates reports for the merchant, including payment batch detail reports and transaction exception detail reports.

This is the second new credit card product that Krengel has launched recently. Last May, the company launched Krengel Authorize, an extension to the RPG-XML Suite that uses the Authorize.net payment gateway. Authorize.net is owned by Cybersource, which in turn is owned by Visa.

For more information on the new Cybersource plug-in, see the vendor’s website at www.krengeltech.com/i/.

CYBER-ATTACKS ON THE RISE. PROTECT WITH THE TRIPLE PLAY.

COVID-19 has not only caused a global pandemic, but has sparked a “cyber pandemic” as well.

“Cybersecurity experts predict that in 2021, there will be a cyber-attack incident every 11 seconds. This is nearly twice what it was in 2019 (every 19 seconds), and four times the rate five years ago (every 40 seconds in 2016). It is expected that cybercrime will cost the global economy $6.1 trillion annually, making it the third-largest economy in the world, right behind those of the United States and China.”¹

Protecting an organization’s data is not a single-faceted approach, and companies need to do everything they can to both proactively prevent an attempted attack and reactively respond to a successful attack.

UCG Technologies’ VAULT400 subscription defends IBM i and Intel systems against cyber-attacks through comprehensive protection with the Triple Play Protection – Cloud Backup, DRaaS, & Enterprise Cybersecurity Training.

Cyber-attacks become more sophisticated every day. The dramatic rise of the remote workforce has accelerated this trend as cyber criminals aggressively target company employees with online social engineering attacks. It is crucial that employees have proper training on what NOT to click on. Cyber threats and social engineering are constantly evolving and UCG’s Enterprise Cybersecurity Training (powered by KnowBe4) is designed to educate employees on the current cutting-edge cyber-attacks and how to reduce and eliminate them.

A company is only as strong as its weakest link and prevention is just part of the story. Organizations need to have a quick response and actionable plan to implement should their data become compromised. This is the role of cloud backup and disaster-recovery-as-a-service (DRaaS).

Data is a company’s most valuable asset. UCG’s VAULT400 Cloud Backup provides 256-bit encrypted backups to two (2) remote locations for safe retrieval should a cyber-attack occur. This is a necessary component of any protection strategy. Whether a single click on a malicious link brings down the Windows environment or an infected SQL server feeds the IBM i, once the data is compromised, there is no going back unless you have your data readily available.

Recovery is not a trivial task, especially when you factor in the time sensitive nature of restoring from an active attack. This leads to the third play of the Triple Play Protection – DRaaS. Companies have myriad concerns once an attack is realized and a managed service disaster recovery allows employees to keep focus on running the business in a crisis state.

The combination of training employees with secure backup and disaster recovery offers companies the best chance at avoiding financial disruption in an age of stronger, more frequent cyber-attacks.
