VeriFone's RiTA Server and VISA CISP
RiTA Server has recently been evaluated by a VISA-qualified CISP assessor. CISP (Cardholder Information Security Program) is "a standard of due care for securing Visa cardholder data, wherever it is located". The following information was taken from Visa's site:
"In April 2000, Visa announced the launch of its Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP). Approved in October 1999 and mandated June 2001. CISP defines a standard of due care for securing Visa cardholder data, wherever it is located. CISP compliance has been required of all entities storing, processing, or transmitting Visa cardholder data. Members must comply with CISP and are responsible for ensuring the compliance of their merchants and Agents---whether they support Issuing or Acquiring activity---for all payment channels, including retail (brick-and-mortar), mail/telephone-order, and e-commerce."
RiTA was one of the first applications to be validated against Visa's PABP guidelines (Payment Application Best Practices). PABP is part of Visa's CISP initiative.
