InteleNet Offers Suite of Services to Enable Businesses to Comply With Payment Card Industry (PCI) Standards

IRVINE, CA, July 22 / MARKET WIRE/ --
     InteleNet Communications, a Managed Data
Holdings Company, and a leader in colocation, managed services and
on-demand managed hosting that serves business customers throughout the
Orange County and Southern California region, announced today that it has
assembled a suite of security services and products that will enable
enterprise customers to become compliant with Payment Card Industry (PCI)
standards.
     PCI standards were developed by major credit card companies as a guideline
to help organizations that process card payments prevent credit card fraud
and other security vulnerabilities and threats. A company that processes,
stores or transmits payment card data must be PCI compliant or risk losing
their ability to process credit card payments and being audited and/or
fined. While PCI compliance may not be strictly viewed as the law, it is
increasingly being required by financial institutions, their affiliates and
parties that are doing business with those entities.
     "We are pleased to provide products and services that will enable customers
to become PCI compliant," said Carlos Oliveira, General Manager of
InteleNet. "We understand that an increasing number of our existing and
prospective customers must satisfy the comprehensive set of security
requirements developed by the payment card industry. Utilizing our suite of
security services and products, we have already partnered with several
existing and prospective customers to satisfy their goal of becoming PCI
compliant. Our ability to deliver on our customers' requirements has
strengthened our goal of ensuring that InteleNet will remain the premier
data center in the Southern California area. InteleNet has continually
demonstrated a deep commitment to the increasing business and regulatory
requirements of our customers, including financial institutions and their
affiliates."
     InteleNet's Suite of Security Services

objectives. Those services have assisted customers in more easily obtaining
and maintaining PCI compliance. They include some of the following service
