MaximumASP and ScanAlert

We have partnered with ScanAlert to offer free Certified Payment Card Industry (PCI) Compliance for one full year and discounts on Hacker Safe certification.

Due to the increase in hacker activity and resulting consumer fears of using credit cards online, Visa and MasterCard have recently imposed a mandatory security standard for all merchants including Level 4, merchants processing less than 20,000 transactions a year.

As of June 30, 2005, you are required to be compliant with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) security standards or risk fines and permanent expulsion from card acceptance programs.

For most merchants, this means enrolling with a Visa and MasterCard-certified security vendor for PCI certification services consisting of Quarterly Security Scanning of your office and store Internet connections as well as your website, plus the completion of a Security Self-Assessment Questionnaire.

MaximumASP is here to help. We have contracted with ScanAlert™, the world's largest Web site security certification service, to provide this service to our customers at no cost.

ScanAlert's certification is accepted by ALL credit card companies and ALL banks worldwide. We are currently operating co-branded PCI compliance programs, through partners such as VISA and CyberSource, to manage the enrollment of more than 100,000 merchants and third-party service providers worldwide.
