Abstract

Europay, MasterCard and Visa (EMV) is a dominant protocol used for smart card payments worldwide, with over 730 million cards in circulation. One goal of the EMV protocol is to secure debit and credit transactions at a point-of-sale (POS) terminal, but still there are vulnerabilities, which can lead to unauthorized disclosure of cardholder data. This research paper will provide the reader with a single document listing the vulnerabilities leading to various possible attacks against EMV payment card transaction process at a POS terminal. Attack tree methodology will be used to document these vulnerabilities. This research will also provide the countermeasures against various possible attacks.
