"With Visa International and MasterCard now both mandating global compliance with the PCI Data Security Standard by the end of 2010, the authentication and anti-card skimming benefits of EMV is no longer sufficient-merchants and acquirers also need to protect the integrity of cardholder data," said Jeffrey Wakefield, VeriFone vice president and general manager, Global Security Solutions. "VeriShield Protect provides that data security element, and its unique format-preserving encryption technology makes it easy to implement within the existing infrastructure."

VeriFone said its VeriShield Protect eliminates usable cardholder data from a retailer's POS applications, networks and servers by encrypting it end to end, so that even in the event of a security breach no usable data could be compromised and any stored data is secure.

"VeriShield Protect now supports the broadest range of card payments, whether they are magstripe, contactless or EMV-based," said Wakefield. "As all of these payment acceptance methods will continue to co-exist in the foreseeable future, merchants and acquirers can now seamlessly protect all cardholder information that enters their enterprise."
