BankInfoSecurity.com Offers Payment Card Industry Compliance Webinar July 12

Princeton, NJ, July 11, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Prior to the payment card industry creating the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS) in 2004, credit card merchants and financial institutions had individual means for organizations to secure customer data.

The PCI DSS standard is a multifaceted security standard that includes requirements for security management, policies, procedures, network architecture, software design and other critical protective measures. This comprehensive standard is intended to help organizations proactively protect customer account data.

In this July 12 webinar the requirements to achieve and maintain Payment Card Industry compliance will be discussed. The webinar will include a review of the PCI DSS in depth along the merchant and service provider’s definitions and levels and what is needed in order to achieve compliance and how these measures will help stem fraud. A review of common issues merchant and service providers are running into in order to achieve compliance without sacrificing financial loss and reputation. A review of potential solutions that merchant and service providers can consider to eliminate non-compliance issues.
