AsiaPay has announced a partnership with eSecurity solution company Softforum. Under the partnership, AsiaPay will promote and distribute Softforum's XecurePay ACS products in China, including ACS Server,

Enrolment Server, ACS Manager, WAP Extension and SMS Extension.

With the increasing use of Internet and continued growth of eCommerce payment, leading credit card companies have jointly developed and implemented a new online payment security protocol standard, 3-D secure.

Softforum's XecurePay is a 3-D Secure product suite designed to provide a advanced cardholder authentication security for payment with credit card on the Internet. Unlike other 3-D secure products, Softforum XecurePay is the

world's first PKI-based 3-D secure solution that supports both ID/password and public certificate methods. Softforum XecurePay has proven itself a great success amongst banks in Korea and an increasing number of major banks in

Asia.
