Abstract:
1. A server computer having a processor device for executing server logic, said server computer being capable of communication with a hardware device associated with a client computer, said server computer comprising: first server logic executed by said processor device for configuring said processor device to execute a first communication protocol with encrypted data transmission and mutual authentication with the hardware device; second server logic executed by said processor device for configuring said processor device to exchange messages related to electronic transactions with the client computer via a communication network and via the hardware device; third server logic executed by said processor device for configuring said processor device to parse client requests received from the hardware device for predefined transaction information; fourth server logic executed by said processor device for configuring said processor device to send, upon detection of predefined transaction information in a client request, a server response comprising a transaction confirmation request to the hardware device, said processor device responsive to said server response to defer performance of an electronic transaction related to the received predefined transaction information; fifth server logic executed by said processor device for configuring said processor device to perform the deferred electronic transaction upon receipt of a client request from the hardware device comprising a transaction confirmation message that confirms the deferred electronic transaction; sixth server logic executed by said processor device for configuring said processor device to send the transaction confirmation request to the hardware device in a packet header communicated in accordance with the first communication protocol; and seventh server logic executed by said processor device for storing, in a deferred transaction log, data of the deferred electronic transaction.
