System Overview The A98 (Comvelope) solution is a key management system that enables the establishment of a unique ATM key in a manner that is fully compliant with ANSI standards and network operating rules Comvelopes are tamper-evident mailers containing key components the ATM servicer uses to change the ATM’s key No hardware or software changes are necessary to use Order Comvelopes from PULSE (can be used only once) PULSE will provide your servicer IDs (can be used repeatedly) to access the A98 VRU Each ATM servicer entering a key component at an ATM needs a Servicer ID and one randomly-chosen Comvelope. Details available in the A98 System User Guide on PULSE website To obtain login credentials for the PULSE website, send an email to web_id@pulsenetwork.com, include the words “ID Request” in the subject line
