A system for processing a transaction, the system having at least one processor configured for:
- receiving an identifier sent from a first computer;
- issuing a token for the first computer, wherein a first point-to-point security association is negotiated with the first computer and a second point-to-point security association is negotiated with a second computer;
- receiving a transaction message from the second computer, the transaction message comprising control data and payload data, wherein:
- the control data provides authentication of a source of the transaction and includes the token;
- and
- the token provides transaction routing information;
- and
