Cybercash requires a library file too, for the encryption/decryption
functions.
With Cybercash, you use the library to encrypt the request into a string,
then pass this along unsecured HTTP using a HTTP GET.
With Payflow Pro, you pass the whole request to the library which then
uses end-to-end SSL to talk to the processor.
But they both require external software.
