Identity theft is a crime that impacts consumers, retail merchants, and financial
institutions worldwide. Just last year, consumers in the United States filed over
685,000 complaints and reported losses of more than $680 million. More than 100
million identities have been reported as compromised in the last two years. This
crime is also burgeoning in Europe: identity theft in the UK has increased 500%
since 1999 with an estimated loss of £3,039 per victim. Therefore, the Payment Card
Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) and Payment Application Data Security
Standard (PA-DSS) standards have been established to bolster the security of credit
card data when it is collected, processed, stored and transmitted.
Our Threat Mitigation team members work with clients in a range of industries such
as finance, e-Commerce, retail, healthcare, payment cards, and higher education
to protect their credit card data and other sensitive information. We are approved
by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) as both a Payment
Card Industry Qualified Security Assessor (PCI QSA) and a Payment Application Qualified
Security Assessor (PA-QSA). We are one of a limited number of companies certified
to provide assessments to organizations in the six major world markets of Europe,
Middle East, Asia Pacific, Africa, Latin America, Canada and US, which allows us
to help our clients in their international and American-based locations.
