EMVkiipe
EMVkiipe is a hypothetical concept used in discussions about EMV payment security. The term designates a modular framework for prototyping and evaluating secure interactions between EMV cards, payment terminals, and host systems within a controlled environment. It is not an official standard and has no formal specification recognized by payment networks.
Origin and scope: The concept emerged in security research and classroom settings as a way to model
Architecture: EMVkiipe envisions decoupled components: a card-emulation layer representing the secure element, a terminal-layer interface that
Implementation variants: In practice, EMVkiipe has been used in simulations, software-only emulators, or with development hardware
Limitations and reception: Since it is not an official standard or widely adopted framework, EMVkiipe remains
