In April 2000, Visa announced the launch of its Cardholder
Information Security Program (CISP). Approved in October
1999 and mandated May 1, 2001, the program was created
specifically for merchants and service providers who
process, store or transmit cardholder data.
Visa & MasterCard have combined their data security
standards under a new program called Payment Card Industry (PCI)
Security Standard. Both programs set technical requirements
and compliance standards to protect cardholder data during
storage and transmission. Discover and Amex have also
agreed with this standard.
Merchants are categorized into
levels as follows:
Level 1 > 6mm annual VI / MC transactions (e-comm, MOTO, retail) or any compromised merchant
Level 2 150K - 6mm transactions
Level 3 20K - 150K
Level 4 Any other merchant
Compliance Deadline Dates are as follows:
Level 1 9/30/04 (VI/MC)
Level 2 12/31/04 (MC) - 6/30/05 (VI)
Level 3 6/30/05
Level 4 Compliance mandatory, validation optional
Requirements
Level 1 Annual on-site security audit, Quarterly network scan, independent. security assessor & scan vendor
Level 2 Annual self-assessment, Quarterly scan, independent scan vendor
Level 3 Annual self-assessment, Quarterly scan, independent scan vendor
Level 4 Recommended self-assessment & Quarterly scan, independent vendor
12 Requirements grouped into 6 general headings:
- Build and maintain a secure network
- Protect cardholder data
- Maintain a vulnerability Management Program
- Implement Strong Access Control Measures
- Regularly Monitor & Test Networks
- Maintain an Information Security Policy
Reporting Requirements:
Level 1 ROC and proof of satisfactory perimeter scan
Level 2 Questionnaire and satisfactory scan (sent to PTI

Level 4 No reporting requirements

SOFTWARE LICENSING AND PRICING

|  |
 |
certified 08/06/2003 |
certified 10/20/2003 |
certified 12/24/2003 |
Curbstone Card is sold with three license options,
but is the same software with the same impressive features and functionality
for all. Because we belive that your license fee for the product should be proportional
to its benefit to you, we offer three basic levels of license:
|
Red |
up to 9,000 settled transactions in any calendar quarter |
|
Yellow |
up to 27,000 settled transactions in any calendar quarter |
|
Green |
unlimited transactions |

Of course, if you exceed the licensed limit, the
software will merely nag with increasing
insistence that you to upgrade your license. The
upgrade fee is the exact difference between the
license you have and the license you need. You pay
no penalty for upgrading later!
The license fee for the entry level "Red"
product is US $9495. Additional
network support and other features are optional.
