Credit Card Transactions and PCI
Compliance
Most businesses today rely upon credit cards as the payment of choice by their customers. It is a convenient method for both the customer and the business, but how do you know your information is secure? Here are some facts:
80%• of credit card data compromises occur at brick-and-mortar
businesses (vs. 20% for e-commerce businesses).
96% of credit card data compromises occur at brick-and-mortar
locations due to non-PCI compliant payment applications.
50%• of credit card data compromises are blamed on third-party negligence.
As these statistics show, the threat against your
business is real. Information embedded on a credit card’s
magnetic stripe is valuable and must be protected. And, the
credit card companies are expecting businesses to provide
that protection.
Unfortunately, cyber criminals have access to tools that
can hack into payment systems and obtain a cardholder’s
secure information. Businesses not compliant with the
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) are
at a greater risk of security breaches from cyber criminals.
The PCI DSS outlines fundamental best security practices
to help protect businesses and their customers against
fraud.
