The Card Security Code (CSC), sometimes called Card Verification Value or Code (CVV or CVC), is a security feature for credit or debit card transactions, giving increased protection against credit card fraud. For Visa and Master cards its last 3 digits printed on signature strip and for Amex card its printed above card number. There are actually two security codes: 1. The first code, called CVC1 or CVV1,is encoded on the magnetic stripe of the card and used for transactions in person. 2. The second code, and the most cited, is CVV2 or CVC2. This CSC (also known as a CCID or Credit Card ID) is often asked for by merchants for them to secure "card not present" transactions occurring over the Internet, by mail, fax or over the phone. In many countries in Western Europe, due to increased attempts at card fraud, it is now mandatory to provide this code when the cardholder is not present in person. This latter CSC should not be confused with the standard card account number appearing in embossed or printed digits. (The standard card number undergoes a separate validation algorithm called the Luhn algorithm which serves to determine whether a given card's number is appropriate.)

The A-Tick is a compliance mark produced by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (the ACMA) for telecommunications items. It gives consumers confidence that a telecommunications item meets the safety and technical standards set by the ACMA.
The A-Tick indicates that an item is compliant with the mandatory technical standards and can legally be connected to a telecommunications network. The A-Tick compliance label will appear on items such as fixed and mobile phones, answering machines, facsimile machines and modems.
Telecommunications items must have an A-Tick or display a compliance label of a previous labelling scheme such as the Telecom Authorisation or AUSTEL permit. Items without an A-Tick or the previously accepted labels may be unsafe and cause harm if connected to the telecommunications network.
You should also be aware that it is illegal to connect telecommunications items that do not carry the A-Tick compliance label and that penalties can be imposed.
Generally, the A-Tick is on the base or at the back of an item. With mobile phones, it may be necessary to remove the battery from the phone to see the A-Tick mark. Laptop and desktop computers operated with removable PC modem cards may carry the A-Tick mark on the card rather than on the computer itself. Consideration is being given to items incorporating displays displaying the A-Tick on its screen. Contact the ACMA for further information.
No. The A-Tick only applies to telecommunications items.
Manufacturers and importers, after seeking permission, may use the A-Tick symbol on their telecommunications items to show that their item is compliant with the mandatory technical standards and can be legally connected to the network.
