The five major credit card companies created the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard to help companies implement measures to prevent, detect, and react to security intrusions. Any company that stores, transmits, or otherwise processes sensitive credit card information is required to be PCI compliant or risk expensive fines. The credit card companies could even revoke the ability to process credit cards at all.
Being PCI compliant has any number of benefits, which include the ability to guard your sensitive information from hackers and prevent other forms of fraud and intrusion.
But it's not a simple process to do on your own. Trying to address the more than 200 different security controls can be time consuming and expensive. But when you outsource your payment processing needs to Braintree, we can help you become PCI compliant in a mere 30 to 60 days. Our goal is to help you reach PCI DSS compliance so you can continue to run your business just like you always have.
How To Be PCI Compliant
The mandated requirements for PCI compliance are different for different sized companies, and as technology and threats evolve, the security standards will change with them.
At Braintree Payment Solutions we are always on the cutting edge of the industry. You don't have to worry about assessments or hardware and software installation and upgrades because we take care of all of that for you.
We address two major components of being PCI compliant by employing:
- Remote Storage: Keeping sensitive credit card information on your own system can make you a target for hackers and thieves. At Braintree we remotely store your information on our secure Level 1 PCI compliant environment.
- Transparent Redirect: You can run your business as usual because our solutions are completely transparent to the user. They never have to leave your URL and their transactions are still completely secure. This integration of systems means convenience for them, and peace of mind for you.
