In a bid to enhance their PCI offerings RSA today announced a collaboration with Cisco Systems. RSA stated that they will provide interoperability with five PCI solutions in Cisco’s reference architectures.
From the press release:
The Cisco PCI Solution for Retail Validated Network Designs help retailers of all sizes effectively address the data security requirements mandated by the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
The Cisco Validated Network Designs, which have been validated by external PCI Qualified Security Auditor (QSA) Verizon Business, offer a set of cost- effective, audited solutions that help customers meet many of the most challenging PCI DSS requirements, including authentication, encryption and compliance reporting. RSA is leveraging the Cisco PCI Validated Network Designs to help enable retailers to easily integrate new or existing technology solutions into their in-store, Internet edge and data center environments in a PCI DSS compliant manner.
“The complexity of PCI compliance cannot be untangled by a single product or set of products; the requirements call for a holistic strategy that spans people, process, and technology,” said Jim Melvin, vice president of Marketing and Security Solutions at RSA. “Smart retailers, who take advantage of PCI DSS as an opportunity to establish a foundation of broad data security best practices, will be better prepared to not only achieve and maintain PCI DSS compliance, but to ready their organizations for new data security and compliance requirements that may emerge in the future.”
