EMV 3‑D Secure (3DS) - Payment Authentication Protocol
What is EMV 3‑D Secure (3DS) - Payment Authentication Protocol?
EMVCo EMV 3-D Secure (3DS), the messaging protocol that enables consumer authentication for card-not-present e-commerce transactions (the basis of Visa Secure, Mastercard Identity Check, etc.). 3DS uses a three-domain model (Acquirer, Issuer, Interoperability domains) and the roles 3DS Requestor, 3DS Server, Directory Server (DS), Access Control Server (ACS) and 3DS SDK, exchanging Authentication (AReq/ARes), Challenge (CReq/CRes) and Results (RReq/RRes) messages to support frictionless (risk-based) and challenge (step-up) authentication across browser and app channels. It comprises 22 controls organised across 6 domains, and applies in International (EMVCo - standards consortium).
