Payment Alliance International, a Louisville, Ky.-based ISO, and Panoptic Security, a qualified security assessor that specializes in Payment Card Industry data security standards, have entered into a strategic partnership to provide the ISO’s merchants with an online PCI compliance portal.
Salt Lake City-based Panoptic’s ExpertPCI has been integrated into the PAI Secure program, the ISO’s PCI compliance and indemnification program, where participating merchants can now complete their PCI industry-mandated self-assessment questionnaires and network Scans online by using a guided step-by-step process.
“We are very excited about our partnership with Panoptic Security to deliver an even more efficient way for our merchants to become PCI compliant,” John J. Leehy III, Payments Alliance International president and CEO said in a press release.
ExpertPCI delivers higher compliance rates than industry averages by simplifying the process, shortening the time for merchants to complete the questionnaire and guiding them through the process one step at a time, the release said.
