Data
security has become an ever increasing area of concern
and focus in the payments industry. In 2003, Visa USA
mandated processors, such as eboCom, to comply with
the Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP) to
protect cardholder data and is the highest information
security standard. MasterCard, American Express, Discover
and JCB also announced their own individual compliancy
programs. Ultimately, all the card brand requirements
were incorporated into a single industry standard known
as the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard
(DSS). EboCom was among one of the first payment processors
to embrace this requirement in 2003 and continues to
recertify their PCI compliancy every year. |
