Are you handling Credit Card Payments? Let us help you become PCI compliant!
While we are all working towards making our businesses run as smoothly and safely as possible, one of things you may have overlooked is making sure you client’s financial information is as safe and secure as possible.
Credit Card information is a critical piece of information that you need to be aware of protecting. It is not hard to do so but you need to put the right protection in place to help you do this.
We find many small businesses still using simple home routers or just your Internet Provider’s modem for your connection to the Internet. That is just not the right piece of equipment to do this. You need to call one of our security experts to provide suggestions on how you can easily create a secure environment for your business.
We suggest Sophos Security products primarily to do this for you. The first line of defense is to put in place a business class firewall that will provide the following protection:
- · Intrusion Protection for those trying to break into your network and detection of outbound traffic that needs to be secure and managed
- · Control address, port, protocol and specific application traffic and behavior patterns.
- · Perform NAT (Network Address Translation)
- · Detect and block spoofed IP Addresses
- · Inspect data traffic for malicious activities
While this is a good first step in creating a protected environment, it is not the only one you need.
Again, contact one of our security specialists that can provide you with a complete analysis and recommendation for your business.
