PCI DSS 1.1, a set of comprehensive requirements for enhancing payment account data security, was developed by the founding payment brands of the PCI Security Standards Council, including Amex, Discover, JCB, MasterCard and Visa, to help facilitate the broad adoption of consistent data security measures on a global basis. It is a multi-faceted security standard that includes requirements for security management, policies, procedures, network architecture, software design and other critical protective measures and is intended to help organisations proactively protect customer account data.
"Achieving the PCI DSS certification is a testament of WNS' commitment to client responsiveness and data security," said Anup Gupta, chief operating officer, WNS Group. "We have always provided secure and reliable data security environments for our clients. This certification further demonstrates the safety of cardholder data accessed and processed at WNS."
"WNS is one of the first BPOs globally to comply with PCI's data security standards. This recognises the maturity of WNS' technology processes in serving information intensive companies across a range of industries," said Erik Winkler, vice president, professional services, ControlCase. |
