Patent attributes
Methods and systems related to design, test, development, certification, deployment, and maintenance infrastructures for payment solutions are disclosed herein. A disclosed system includes a software binaries generator for generating an executable for a source code file. The source code file includes an EMV kernel. The disclosed system also includes a testing environment that accepts the executable and simulates the executable with a virtual payment processing hardware system in a simulation. The testing environment verifies EMV compliance for the executable via the simulation. The disclosed system also includes a security module that generates a proof of trust for the executable in response to the testing environment verifying EMV compliance for the executable and provides the proof of trust for the executable for an external EMV compliance authority.
