The PCI Security Standards Council is an open global forum, launched in 2006, that is responsible for the development, management, education, and awareness of the PCI Security Standards, including: the Data Security Standard (DSS), Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS), and PIN-Entry Device.

 

The PA-DSS is a security standard designed to help software vendors develop secure payment applications that do not store prohibited data, such as full magnetic stripe, CVV2 or PIN data, and ensure their payment applications support compliance with the PCI Data Security Standard. All payment applications handling credit and debit cards are required by the card brands to maintain PA-DSS compliance.

 

Visum has met all requirements with respect for each payment integration that Visum provides. Some integrations are not supported on a Terminal Server and EMV Devices/Pin Pads are not supported over RDP connections.

 

Your company is also responsible for any PCI and PA-DSS compliance requirements outlined by credit card companies. If you select and process credit cards though the credit card processor that Visum recommends, the processor will help your company with compliancy certification.
