transmitting, by the decryption service provider, a failure alert to the one or more point of sale devices based upon determining the received transaction request is corrupted during transmission and that a decryption failure has occurred as a result of a mismatch between an encryption key and a registered decryption key;

assigning, by the decryption service provider, a level of severity to the received transaction request based on one or more aspects of the failure alert, wherein the level of severity is higher for the transaction request received as the clear data;

determining, by the decryption service provider, a reporting frequency for the failure alert based on the assigned level of severity, the reporting frequency being more frequent for the transaction request received as the clear data;

re-encrypting, by the decryption service provider, the transaction request using an encryption key associated with the decryption service provider;

transmitting, by the decryption service provider, the re-encrypted transaction request to an acquirer processor over a computer network for authorization of the electronic transaction;

processing the transaction request to decrypt the transaction request and detect encryption failures in the transaction request;

transmitting a failure alert to the one or more point of sale devices based upon determining the received transaction request is corrupted during transmission and that a decryption failure has occurred as a result of a mismatch between an encryption key and a registered decryption key;

assigning a level of severity to the received transaction request based on one or more aspects of the failure alert, the level of severity being higher for the transaction request received as the clear data;

determining a reporting frequency for the failure alert based on the assigned level of severity, the reporting frequency being more frequent for the transaction request received as the clear data;

reporting the failure alert to the one or more point of sale devices based on the determined reporting frequency, the failure alert presented in a graphical user interface of the one or more point of sale devices, wherein the failure alert includes a failure report with a number of point-to-point encryption failure according to a failure category;

re-encrypting the transaction request using an encryption key associated with a decryption service provider;

transmitting the re-encrypted transaction request to an acquirer processor over a computer network for authorization of the electronic transaction;

receiving, by the decryption service provider, a transaction processing result from the acquirer processor, the transaction processing result includes an authorization result message; and

transmitting, by the decryption service provider, the transaction processing result to the one or more point of sale device.

5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the system is further configured for:

upon determining that the received transaction request is re-encrypted, decrypting, by the decryption service provider, the re-encrypted transaction request.

6. The system of claim 4 , wherein the failure alert is transmitted to the one or more point of sale devices by way of a reporting portal accessible to the one or more point of sale devices by way of the computer network.

7. A non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computing system, causes the computing system to perform a method for electronic transaction monitoring and reporting robustness of an encryption of transaction requests, the method including:

receiving, by a computing system, a transaction request from one or more point of sale devices, the transaction request being received as encrypted or clear data;

transmitting, by the computing system, the transaction request to a decryption service provider, wherein the decryption service provider processes the transaction request to decrypt the transaction request and detects encryption failures in the transaction request;

transmitting, by the decryption service provider, a failure alert to the one or more point of sale devices based upon determining the received transaction request is corrupted during transmission and that a decryption failure has occurred as a result of a mismatch between an encryption key and a registered decryption key;

assigning, by the decryption service provider, a level of severity to the received transaction request based on one or more aspects of the failure alert, wherein the level of severity is higher for the transaction request received as the clear data;

determining, by the decryption service provider, a reporting frequency for the failure alert based on the assigned level of severity, the reporting frequency being more frequent for the transaction request received as the clear data;

reporting, by the decryption service provider, the failure alert to the one or more point of sale devices based on the determined reporting frequency, the failure alert presented in a graphical user interface of the one or more point of sale devices, wherein the failure alert includes a failure report with a number of point-to-point encryption failure according to a failure category;

re-encrypting, by the decryption service provider, the transaction request using an encryption key associated with the decryption service provider;

transmitting, by the decryption service provider, the re-encrypted transaction request to an acquirer processor over a computer network for authorization of the electronic transaction;
