Secure Computing Launches New PCI Initiative

Secure Computing Corporation has unveiled the company's new Payment Card Industry (PCI) Initiative, a multi-faceted programme aimed at providing global organisations with the information, tools and solutions they need to comply with the new PCI Data Security Standard (DSS).

Key components of the initiative are education and expert resources. A dedicated Secure Computing Website has also been developed to help educate organisations about the 12 major PCI requirements and provide information on how security solutions and best practices can help them comply with the new standard.

Secure Computing also offers a suite of solutions to help organisations comply with the new standards, including Sidewinder, a network and application-layer firewall that fulfills the first requirement by defending networks and Internet-facing applications from all types of known and unknown malicious threats.

"In addition to protecting against the onslaught of security threats, organisations today are required to demonstrate compliance with a growing number of industry regulations and standards," said Ken Rutsky, vice president of product marketing at Secure Computing. "Secure Computing recognises the challenges facing our customers, and is committed to helping them simplify the process by providing all-in-one security and compliance solutions from one trusted vendor."
