The MerchantWARE® Solution
Beyond PCI DSS
Although the PCI’s Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) attempt to alleviate the card data security crisis, they’ve proven to have flaws. Thieves continue to find ways to hack into point-of-sale (POS) systems and steal confidential cardholder information, even from PCI DSS-compliant merchants.
Because the PCI's DSS do not address all areas of risk, transaction data is left exposed, while merchants are left defenseless against system intrusions. To address these concerns and eliminate any vulnerabilities, Merchant Warehouse developed MerchantWARE, a secure payment processing solution that encrypts transaction data instantly at the point-of-swipe, safely transmits it across private and public networks, then carefully stores decrypted transaction information at the MerchantWARE host. Since this solution goes beyond PCI’s DSS, it helps merchants reach compliance much easier, faster, and at less of an expense!
MerchantWARE locks down transaction data using 2 core components:
- Hardware: MerchantWARE utilizes a secure card reader that employs the PCI DSS-approved, Triple DES DUKPT encryption method to ensure data is never “in the clear.”
- Software: MerchantWARE includes an integrated version of our MerchantWARE Payment Gateway, which features an extensive “report polling” tool to provide a seamless user experience.
