Technical Security System: Secure and Compliant

Learn everything about the TSS and its role in the Kassensicherungsverordnung (KassenSichV).

What is the Technical Security System (TSS)?

The TSS protects your cash register data from tampering and ensures a complete and seamless recording of every transaction. It is tamper-proof, legally compliant, and provides a secure and reliable solution for safeguarding transaction data.

Components and Functionality of the Technical Security System (TSS)

SMAERS

The Security Module SMAERS processes all relevant transaction data within a cash register system transaction. It ensures that all essential information, such as start time, transaction type, and payment details, is accurately captured and prepared for signing.

CSP

The Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP) cryptographically signs the data. This signature protects the transactions from subsequent tampering and guarantees that all recorded data is authentic and unaltered.

Signature and Transaction Counter

An ascending signature and transaction counter ensures that every transaction is documented without gaps. This feature allows automatic detection and prevention of any gaps in the records.

TR Testing

The TSS components CSP-L and SMAERS are reviewed and certified by independent evaluators. The entire TSS is then tested by the TR test of the BSI (Federal Office for Information Security) to ensure compliance with the highest security standards.

Certification of the Technical Security System (TSS)

The certification of the TSS by the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) guarantees the highest security standards and compliance with all legal requirements. Learn how the certification protects your cash register systems and why it is essential.

Advantages of the Cloud-TSS

The Cloud-TSS is the modern version of the TSS that meets all legal requirements and stands out due to its centralized management and flexibility. Businesses benefit from easy integration and high scalability.
