PCI Compliance

Our cart is designed to meet the latest security requirements. One of such requirements is PCI compliance.

PCI is a set of strict security standards relating to storage, processing or transaction of credit card data, developed by the leading payment brands, including American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International, MasterCard Worldwide and Visa Inc. Compliance with PCI Data Security Standard is highly recommended for all online stores.

Here are the core principles and requirements, around which the specific elements of the PCI DSS are organized:

Requirement 4: Encrypt transmission of cardholder data across open, public networks

Maintain a Vulnerability Management Program

Requirement 6: Develop and maintain secure systems and applications

Implement Strong Access Control Measures

Requirement 7: Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know
Requirement 8: Assign a unique ID to each person with computer access
Requirement 9: Restrict physical access to cardholder data

Our Carts compliance with PCI
Cardholder data protection in our cart is provided for both offline and online payment methods. In case of offline order processing cardholder data is encrypted with the Blowfish algorithm and stored to the cart database. After the order is processed, the credit card information can be deleted automatically.

If the order processing is carried out online, double protection is possible. In addition to the Blowfish encryption, data can be also encoded with the certificate-based encryption during transmission over networks, as our cart supports SSL certificates of all types.

Another important security factor, which considerably minimizes potential risks, is a PCI compliant hosting environment.
