1 Panasonic Toughpad FZ-R1 FAQs Updated: July 22, 2015 Chip and PIN Security What is chip and PIN? Chip and PIN is a payment card technology developed by Europay, MasterCard and Visa (EMV) that uses an embedded microchip in the payment card to prevent counterfeiting and increase transaction security. With chip and PIN, the cardholder must provide a PIN that matches their security profile or a signature to verify every transaction. Because chip and PIN cards use cryptographic keys for transactions, they require special POS hardware. The Panasonic Toughpad FZ-R1 is the first, enterprise-grade Windows tablet to feature integrated chip and PIN and EMV support. Is integrated chip and PIN technology important? With liability shifting from credit card companies to retailers in the U.S., integrated EMV isn t an option. It s a requirement. As the new security standard for payment card transactions, integrated chip and PIN technology is a major component of a comprehensive data protection strategy for hardware, software and other elements that impact data security. What is the difference between a credit card with a magnetic stripe and one with an EMV chip? Currently in the United States, cardholder information is stored on a magnetic stripe found on the back of the card. Soon, all cards will also contain an Europay, MasterCard, Visa (EMV) chip that replaces cardholder information with cryptographic keys. Cards with EMV chips increase transaction security and are more difficult to counterfeit. Unlike a magnetic stripe card, a payment card with a chip must be read with a special device that decodes the encrypted information and securely processes the credit transaction. This EMV device requires PIN entry or a signature to validate the card owner. This is commonly referred to as chip and PIN or chip and signature. What is EMV? EMV stands for Europay, MasterCard and Visa. EMV technology is currently the global standard for payment processing with credit cards and debit cards. The United States is one of the last countries to migrate to EMV. Currently in the United States, a cardholder s information is stored on a magnetic stripe found on the back of the card. EMV technology uses a chip and cryptographic keys to make payment cards more difficult to counterfeit and help protect against fraud at the point of sale. What is PCI? PCI is the Payment Card Industry Security Council. They set standards that ensure a customer s card data is kept secure throughout the entire Europay, MasterCard, Visa (EMV) transaction process. How does the Toughpad FZ-R1 help secure customer s data? 1

Toughpad FZ-R1 vs. the competition Some competitors claim integrated EMV or on-screen PIN entry. What makes the Toughpad FZ-R1 different? Some competing products process chip and PIN transactions by combining a peripheral attachment and an Android device running a proprietary POS application. While this may be suitable for smaller businesses, these systems can t run enterprise POS applications or Windows, nor are they particularly durable. The Toughpad FZ-R1 is geared for enterprise applications. Developed on the proven Toughpad platform, the FZ-R1 is a semi-rugged device with an integrated smart card reader and physical PIN pad, plus a tablet computer running Windows on an Intel Celeron processor with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM). It is a durable and flexible device, powerful enough to run business and inventory applications as well as enterprise-grade POS applications.

What is more expensive: the Toughpad FZ-R1 or a consumer tablet with peripheral attachments? Low-cost consumer tablet solutions with peripheral attachments have driven the adoption of mobile POS in the retail and food services markets, but many retailers have learned the painful shortcomings of products that are not purpose-built for the realities of a fast-moving business. Third-party peripheral devices, like sleds, barcode scanners and payment attachments, quickly drive up the cost of the of the consumer tablet, closing the gap between a consumer solution and a purpose-built enterprise solution. The Toughpad FZ-R1 replaces all the third-party sleds, readers and scanners with a single, integrated device that drastically reduces complexity and device management. With the FZ-R1, there is only one 4

5 machine to charge, provision, update and track. It is built on a stable platform that is designed for a longer life cycle, making it ideal for enterprise.
