Payment security

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) is a set of requirements for enhancing payment account data security. These standards were developed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which was founded by Visa, MasterCard, JCB, Discover and American Express to facilitate industry-wide adoption of consistent data security measures on a global basis. Visit our Customer Centre for more information.

As soon as your customer inserts their card into the terminal, their card data becomes encrypted, rendering it unintelligible to potential fraudsters. What’s more, because Secured Encrypt is so robust, your self-assessment questionnaire is much shorter too, saving you time and money.

You get more than PCI certification:

• Reminder email at certification renewal
• PCI Waiver Programme in case of card data breach
• Proactively managed by Elavon security experts
• Remote installation of security tools
• Security scans Cardholder data encryption from the minute card enters terminal
• Reduced PCI DSS scope
  

Your business keeps you busy enough so you might prefer to save time with Secured Pro and let an Elavon compliance manager organise your PCI compliance for you. Working together to successfully complete all actions, you won’t have to worry about certification expiring or your fraud processes not being up to scratch. We’ll also run system security scans to find any potential risks.

You get more than PCI certification:

• Save time and worry
• Keeps your business data secure
•  Protect your customers’ personal data
• Card fraud protection
• Achieve PCI DSS certification
• Avoid non-compliance fees
• Extensive system security scan checks

Benefit from our PCI waiver programme, depending on your level of PCI compliance.

To make the process of becoming PCI DSS compliant as easy as possible, we have developed a simple three-step process to get you certified.

Step 1 – Register at Elavonsecuritymanager.com

You’ll receive two login emails from Secured by Elavon with your username and password for registration.

Step 2 – Complete PCI DSS questionnaire

Once registered, you will be guided through the compliance validation process to achieve certification straight away, certainly no later than 90 days from the date your account is opened to avoid the PCI non-compliance fee.

Step 3 – Receive PCI DSS certification

After successfully confirming your business is processing card payments in a secure manner, we will send you your PCI DSS certification.

Benefits of becoming PCI compliant

• Keeps your customer card data secure to industry regulations
• Reduces the risk of card fraud
• Avoid non-compliance fees, as you no longer pose a risk
• Avoid reputational damage in the event of a breach

If you have already validated PCI Compliance for your business via another PCI Program other than Elavon's, you must supply proof of validation.
