PCI: How to Safeguard Customer Data Against Real Threats

Tags:
security standards

Overview Through PCI DSS, the card associations are taking a stand against online fraud, misuse of cardholder data and ID theft. PCI requires affected organizations to continuously monitor and manage the cardholder data environment, while maintaining a strong security posture against breaches and attacks. Protecting cardholder information involves addressing the risks associated with countless system components, including network devices, servers and applications. Merchants and service providers must implement broad policy-driven security programs to reduce the overall risk associated with storing, processing or transmitting cardholder data. nFX SIM One, along with the alignment of people, processes and technology, enables retailers and payment service providers to meet PCI objectives and ensure a resilient infrastructure.
