Jesta I.S. is PA-DSS certified by
Coalfire
Retailers
are assured of PA-DSS and PCI Compliance with Jesta’s Vision Store
New York, NY – January 18, 2010
-Jesta I.S. Inc., a leading supplier
of software solutions for the soft goods and specialty markets, announced today
that Coalfire has certified Jesta I.S. Inc.’s Vision Store -PA (Payment
Application) to be PCI PA-DSS compliant.
Cardholders, retailers and banks all victims
of fraud where money and trust have been lost in the past years are concerned
with protecting customer account data. As a result, the founders of the Payment
Card Industry (PCI); Visa, MasterCard Worldwide, American Express, Discover
Financial Services and JCB International have introduced a set of security
standards to help ensure that the information associated with a debit or credit
card transaction is protected.
These standards comprised of the PCI Data
Security Standard (PCI DSS) and the Payment Application Data Security Standard
(PA-DSS) assure accountability on how customer account information is used
regarding security management, policies, procedures, network architecture, and
software design among others.
Coalfire, a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA)
and Payment Application Qualified Security Assessor (PA-QSA), has certified
that the Jesta I.S. Vision Store-PA is in compliance with the PA-DSS. The
upgrade to Vision Store 11.0 includes the new Jesta’s Vision Store-PA
that provides an innovative approach to isolating cardholder data and
associated transaction processing from the rest of the retail enterprise.
Retailers can be assured that a
customers’ card data is never exposed; the processing of the card is done
in a manner consistent and compliant with the Payment Card Industry standards.
The purpose is to give retailers a new safe environment and to help them adapt
easily and efficiently to these changes.
“It is very important to retailers that
their credit and debit card transactions are secure. Not only are they facing
imposed deadlines by the Payment Card Industry, but they are also facing an
increased level of anxiety from their own customers’ regarding privacy
and security. With this certification, Jesta I.S. is well positioned to help retailers
succeed in this challenge” stated Mr. Leslie Belcher, President, Jesta
I.S. Inc.
