Description The Pitney Bowes Compliant Meter Postal Security Device (PSD) has been designed in compliance with the United States Postal Service (USPS), Information-Based Indicia Program (IBIP) and with the Canada Post Corporation’s Digital Meter Indicia Specification 3457. It employs strong encryption, decryption, and digital signature techniques for the protection of customer funds in Pitney Bowes IBIP Metering products. The PSD is a secure module employed within the metering product which performs high-speed cryptographic functions, funds management, and printer administration functions that preclude unauthorized disbursing of indicia. The PSD has been designed to support international postal markets and their rapidly evolving requirements for digital indicia.

Automated analysis

Automated inference - use with caution

All attributes shown in this section (e.g., links between certificates, products, vendors, and known CVEs) are generated by automated heuristics and have not been reviewed by humans. These methods can produce false positives or false negatives and should not be treated as definitive without independent verification. This applies equally to the Cross-references section below. If you want to know more about how this data is computed and how reliable it is, see our documentation on automated analysis. If you believe any information here is inaccurate or harmful, please submit feedback.

No automatically derived data are available in this section.
