# Decrypt

**Magensa Decrypt** is a cloud-based web service where encrypted data from MagTek readers is sent to Magensa for secure, centralized decryption. This service allows developers and system integrators to retrieve decrypted card data, MagnePrint scores, and transaction IDs without exposing sensitive information within their own environment. Magensa Decrypt supports any data encrypted by a MagTek MagneSafe reader, including bulk data and individually encrypted fields, and is often paired with the **Decrypt & Forward (DaF)** service to deliver decrypted payloads to third-party endpoints. 

The service is PCI-DSS certified and secures transactions across retail, healthcare, restaurant, hospitality, government, education, and transportation industries. The official Magensa Decrypt support page is a central hub containing all the resources you'll need. There you can find product brochures, programmer's manuals (including the Decrypt 3.0 Web Service API guide and MICR decryption documentation), code samples in multiple programming languages, an FAQ section, and instructional videos.
