The computing and messaging needs of the financial sector are highly dispersed, highly regulated, and the foundation for many of the security principles applied in today’s market. This sector is made up of a vast and complex mixture of devices. Many are installed in very remote locations, designed for unattended operation, and dependent on limited communications facilities, while others are part of large retail establishments that include local edge computing elements. Connection and storage efficiency, latency, and information security are important for all.
Financial transactions must be processed and archived at multiple levels. A local device has to provide positive feedback on the state of a transaction, as well as the ability to store it so that it can be reversed if needed. This feedback reduces the risk that a transaction attempt will be duplicated by a confused user, or a failure will go undetected. Latency is critical to synchronize feedback and user actions, but in addition most financial devices will “time out” if too much delay is introduced, and ATMs may even lock up and require manual reset.
Atombeam’s data-as-codewords technology fits all those major financial industry deployment models. Neurpac Sensor Embed and Gateway can be used effectively for new financial devices (Sensor Embed) or existing devices and multiple-device retail setups. In either case, the technology reduces transmission and storage requirements by up to 90%, and at the same time obscures data to improve security. At any point where financial messages have to be accessed within a stream or retrieved from storage, Neurpac Storage and Retrieval provides near-instant access to the native message data without requiring it be stored in that native form.
Financial devices and applications touch our lives daily, and Atombeam ensures that touch preserves efficient data movement, storage, and security.
