MasterCard selected a
solution of Packet General Networks,
provider of innovative
data security solutions to develop a
PCI-DSS compliant
infrastructure communicated with
Internet.
Today many measures are being taken to fight against breaches in data security. Yet customers are left to themselves when it comes to financial data compromises as neither the operating system vendor, nor the application vendor takes on the responsibility of securing the data that they help generate and house.
Packet General developed a series of secure server appliances that protect application data and enable customers to comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard.
Today organizations are required to comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). To meet the requirement in a more efficient way institutions need an easy to deploy and transparent compliance solution.
MasterCard being the market leader in electronic transactions with operations in 210 countries and the driving force behind Payment Card Industry (PCI) mandates decided to leverage "PCI-GENERAL™ for MySQL" to secure their own data, validating the Secure Server Appliance™ (SSA™) concept.
"As one of the creators of the PCI standard, MasterCard® places a premium on data security," said Didier Godart, Product Leader PSI group of MasterCard. "We selected PCI-GENERAL™ because it met our stringent data security requirements, enabled us to become operational within a short amount of time and best of all we didn't have to change a single line of code."
