Authorize.Net New Security Certificates

Dharma has hundreds of merchants using the Authorize.Net payment gateway, the largest and most successful e-commerce service in the country, so this message is directed towards those merchants who connect to this gateway using Authorize.Net’s API. Authorize.Net has announced an upgrade, effective September 21^st, to new security certificates that use enhanced algorithms and a 2048 bit signature, which will break the connection to the servers if web developers do not re-connect the shopping cart with the new standards (meaning the merchant’s website will cease to accept payments). Merchants can direct their web developers to the Authorize.Net blog for complete information.
