PASADENA, Calif., Jan. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Wallaby, the leader in mobile and web-based credit card optimization solutions, today announced its official certification by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council, making Wallaby the first and only credit card optimization solution to receive PCI certification. The certification reflects Wallaby's full compliance with PCI standards for the security of cardholder data. The report commended Wallaby for its effective implementation of information security policies and processes.
The extensive set of standards advanced by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council requires merchants and service providers to implement and maintain systems that prevent credit card fraud. These standards include security management, policies and procedures, physical security, network architecture, user access management, network and systems monitoring, and software development.
Full PCI compliance represents a significant benchmark as Wallaby extends its business partnerships and market leadership within the financial services industry and other related markets such as travel.
"Our customers and business partners come to us because they believe in our data and how we deliver it. A key component of this is security and compliance," said Wallaby Founder and CEO Matthew Goldman. "Gaining PCI compliance is a validation of how seriously we take crucial security policies and processes. Our team has been painstaking in building systems that are robust and compliant on all levels."
