01 October 2010
For merchants, data breach risk is very real. But a successful hack attack is just a possibility. As sure as taxes, PCI compliance costs are certainties. Compliance is a costly treadmill, requiring periodic system updates to meet the requirements of the expanding set of PCI compliance rules.
While it is impossible to ever get off the treadmill—merchants are entirely responsible for their PCI compliance—there are techniques to reduce both the level of compliance effort and security exposure. Payment card data encryption is a particularly potent tool. By taking the two-pronged approach of encrypting payment card data when it enters the payment system—at the moment it is swiped—and replacing all stored card data with new proxy values, the merchant is able to “de-scope” a significant portion of its IT infrastructure. If there aren’t any card numbers on the merchant’s systems, PCI compliance requirements get much simpler.

01 October 2008
Managed networks connect merchants to payment processing vendors and other supply-chain businesses so they can leverage both the power of the Internet and the connections of value-added networks. Managed networks replace the various existing dial-up lines that are installed in a business’s property with a single, easily managed Internet connection. This is achieved by installing a dial-to-Internet Protocol (IP) conversion device that encrypts and transports business traffic over the Internet through a managed mediation point on its way to the payment processor of the business’s choice.
