     Recently, it seems that on any given day, there's a story in the news detailing how company X or company Y has reported the loss or theft of tens of thousands of credit card records. Backup tapes loaded with transaction data lost in the mail. Laptops filled with customer records swiped from trunks of cars. Card numbers swiped out of thin air as they move between POS systems and servers over WiFi networks. It's a growing problem.

     If your business accepts credit cards, it's more important than ever to make sure that you're doing things the right way. Specifically, you have to make sure that your efforts to secure card data are compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). To learn more, click on the link below to download the FREE whitepaper "Lessons Learned: Top Reasons for PCI Audit Failure and How To Avoid Them", available now via IDG Connect compliments of Network World and VeriSign. It's a must read!
