Security maintenance
IT security and quality of service of ticketing systems is a major issue for transport authorities and operators. Maintaining a quality of service, especially in terms of transactional performance, and a level of security in line with the needs expressed, is closely linked to the interaction between the software of the various system equipment and the transactional software core of the terminal/customer support exchange, which is the subject of the Calypso license.
In order to meet these expectations of transport authorities and operators, CNA has set up exclusive services for the improvement of the quality of service and for the monitoring and security maintenance of Calypso ticketing systems.

What do our members say about CNA
RATP Smart Systems was a pioneer in implementing Keyple in a major project involving some 1500 terminals rolled out in the Paris Region.
Time was critical and although Keyple was chosen to ease the integration of Calypso in contactless terminals, support was required, all the more as this was the first major implementation of Keyple which incurred teething issues for obvious reasons.
The support we received from CNA was invaluable. Not only was their level of expertise second to none but the amount of support they provided and their responsiveness was truly outstanding.
Thanks to CNA’s key role and our membership, we have access to the latest Calypso specifications for the development, deployment, and certification of our cards - becoming market pioneers as a result.
