Cyber Cash model needs to be
Secure
CyberCash model makes safe passage over the
Internet for credit card transaction data. They
take the data that is sent to them from the
merchant, and pass it to the merchant's acquiring
bank for processing. Except for dealing with the
merchant through CyberCash's server, the
acquiring bank processes the credit card
transaction as they would process transactions
received through a point of sale (POS) terminal
in a retail store.
