S1 Postilion Solution receives Visa security best practices validation

July 31, 2006

S1 Corporation, a provider of customer interaction software solutions for financial and payment services, today announced that the applications making up the Postilion for Retail solution have been validated as complying with Visa USA and Visa Europe's payment application security best practices, known as Visa Cardholder Information Security Payment Application Best Practices (CISP PABP). This validation indicates that these Postilion applications handle cardholder data in a secure manner, which helps Postilion customers comply with payment industry standards such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
 
CISP PABP validation is considered the industry standard for the data security validation of payment applications. It is designed to assist software vendors to develop secure payment applications in an effort to minimize the potential for security breaches and compromised card details. The Visa standards establish a set of best practices, which include the protection of stored data, providing secure password features and not retaining full magnetic stripe or CVV2 data.
 
"Participation in the Visa CISP PABP program is critical to helping secure the payment industry," said Brooks Wallace, managing director of Ambiron TrustWave Ltd., the London-based, independent, Visa-qualified security assessor that conducted the PABP review for S1 that lead to validation. "The participation of S1 indicates the company's long-standing and ongoing commitment to consumer security. This validation recognizes Postilion's security features for ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of cardholder data."
