Century Payments, today selected Trustwave to provide Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliance validation solutions to its Level 4 merchants. Trustwave is a leading provider of information security and compliance solutions.
The PCI DSS is the payment card industry security requirement for entities that store, process or transmit cardholder data, and has been endorsed by all the major card brands - Visa, MasterCard Worldwide, Discover Network, American Express and JCB.
In an effort to assist merchants with their compliance efforts, Century engaged Trustwave to provide its merchants access to TrustKeeper®, Trustwave's innovative security and compliance web portal.
Trustwave's TrustKeeper is a revolutionary web portal that supports merchants' compliance efforts, including moving merchants through the complex compliance process with greater ease and efficiency by making the tasks achievable by non-technical users. This helps facilitate PCI DSS compliance validation for merchants or acquirers, ISOs and processors with large merchant populations.
TrustKeeper features PCI Wizard, which simplifies the complex PCI DSS compliance process. Additionally, TrustKeeper Agent helps merchants identify if unencrypted cardholder data or track data is stored, thereby reducing the merchants' risk of card data theft. TrustKeeper also helps merchants complete required vulnerability scans and receive their PCI DSS compliance certificate.
"After careful consideration of other programs, we chose Trustwave because they most aligned with our goals and objectives around data security for our merchant portfolio," said Christopher Justice, president of Century Payments. "Trustwave's industry expertise and merchant compliance program will help our clients validate and maintain their PCI DSS compliance through easy-to-complete steps that any-sized merchant can understand."
"Trustwave is excited to partner with Century Payments, a leading payment processor, because they understand the importance of validating PCI DSS compliance across their merchant portfolio and are ready to provide the resources necessary to help manage the requirements," said Robert J. McCullen, chairman, CEO and president of Trustwave. "Our merchant compliance program provides Century Payments the necessary tools to help lead their merchants through the compliance process in a step-by-step program that translates the difficult tasks of compliance validation into a comprehensible language for merchants of any size."
