Payment Card Industry Security Standards

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 3 Same Requirements as Level 2
Level 4 No reporting requirements

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. Inquire for a quote specific to your needs.
