Solutions for E-Commerce and Retail

Solutions from Internet Security Systems (ISS) help some of the world’s leading merchants minimize risk, meet regulatory requirements and maintain customer trust.

Protect your Customers, Protect your Business

Concerns about identity theft, credit card fraud and loss of privacy have an impact on consumer behavior. To maintain the trust of your customers, you must exceed their expectations for security and privacy. With “ahead of the threat” protection from ISS, you can avoid highly publicized security incidents and the lingering negative effects they can have on your brand.

Customer Data Security

Ensuring the security of your customers’ data is critical. The costs of a security incident could be substantial, both for your customers and your organization. Unfavorable publicity alone could result in lost revenue and the loss of customer trust. ISS offers a multi-layered solution to prevent information theft, including system design and implementation, policy development, information and application security assessment, and employee training.

Payment Card Industry (PCI) Standard

Initiatives such as the Payment Card Industry (PCI) standard require organizations to follow specific guidelines for protecting customer data. Failure to comply with these measures may result in severe consequences.

As a Qualified Data Security Company (QDSC), ISS has met the requirements to perform PCI data security assessments. All ISS security assessments are conducted by Qualified Data Security Professionals (QDSPs) who have in-depth experience in market and compliance requirements.

ISS is also a Qualified Payment Application Security Company (QPASC), having met the requirements to perform PCI Application Security Assessments and validate payment applications. ISS Qualified Payment Application Security Professionals (QPASPs) conduct these assessments.

Regulatory Compliance

Governments have passed numerous regulations on data privacy and protection in response to increased threats to consumers. Regulations such as Gramm-Leach Bliley (GLBA), Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) and California Senate Bill 1386 require financial institutions to protect customer data and report security breaches.

To help you meet these requirements, ISS will conduct a thorough gap analysis of your current security state and compare it to requirements for security best practices. Then, ISS works with you to design and implement solutions to close those gaps and ensure you meet regulatory compliance and reporting requirements.

Maximized System Availability

Maintaining the availability of your Web site, point-of-sale (POS) systems and business applications is critical for traditional and online merchants. Holes in security may lead to downtime and lost revenue. ISS will help improve the security of your networks, systems and applications to maximize system availability and increase overall performance.
