Spectrotel receives PCI Data Security Standard (DSS) 3.2 Compliance Certification

NEPTUNE, NJ (March 27, 2019) –Spectrotel, Inc., a leading national integrated solutions provider for enterprise businesses, today announced it has earned the latest requirements for PCI Data Security Standard (DSS) 3.2 compliance. Spectrotel works closely with its customers to provide the expertise, proactive support and strategic guidance necessary to meet and maintain compliance standards. 

“Data breaches can result in loss of revenue, brand reputation and in some instances the loss of business altogether,” stated President & COO Ross Artale. “Our ability to help customers build and maintain a secure network through PCI DSS 3.2 best practices and compliance requirements builds on our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of service and security.  As we continue to grow, partners and customers can feel confident in Spectrotel’s state-of-the art platform and network to provide a safe and reliable processing environment while reducing security assessment costs.”

“Protecting end user credit card data is of paramount concern for our customers, especially financial institutions and retailers. They rely on us to help achieve their security goals, provide the necessary resources and stay compliant with the most current technology to protect their business,” stated. Mr. Artale "Spectrotel has made a significant investment in security and compliance to enable customers to combat growing security challenges by leveraging our best-in-class Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and Vulnerability scanning.” 

3.2 compliance requirements are stringent and include:

• Multi-factor authentication; the use of more controls than username and password combinations alone to protect sensitive data environments
• Increased frequency of penetration testing; service providers must test IT systems every six months to detect potential data security vulnerabilities
• Increased employee assessment; service providers must perform quarterly reviews to confirm that employees are following security policies and operational procedures
• Track and monitor all access to network resources and cardholder data; use of Syslogs, Event logs and Alerting

With data breaches and cyber threats on the rise security is of the highest priority for most organizations. Spectrotel’s PCI DSS 3.2 certification provides a level of confidence and maintains a secure environment for businesses processing and transmitting credit card information.
