PCI Data Security Standard
Secure Building Blocks for PCI Compliance
The payment card companies, led by MasterCard and Visa, have allied to develop a common set of security requirements, known as the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard, to ensure the continued integrity and good reputation of the electronic payment system. PCI requirements are designed to protect merchants, banks, and third-party payment processors from theft or compromise of sensitive customer account information.
Check Point Software, a worldwide leader in security, offers a suite of solutions that support merchants, financial institutions, and information processors in achieving compliance with the PCI standard. Check Point solutions are comprehensive and integrated, serving as a solid base for PCI compliance while also supporting requirements common to other security regulations. In addition, Check Point solutions deliver fundamental business value by reducing risk, supporting new payment channels (e.g., Web-based services), and protecting and enhancing the ongoing trust of cardholders and business partners.
