ENCRYPTION

 Why is encryption used for online security payments? 

    A security precaution used to reduce the possibility of credit or debit card information being stolen is card encryption. Without the associated encryption key that enables the merchant and financial institution to complete their operations, it is impossible to access the card information. (Chen, n.d.)
