VASCO Launches IDENTIKEY Server 3.3 With PCI DSS Compliancy

VASCO Data Security International, Inc., a software security company specialising in authentication products, has announced IDENTIKEY Server 3.3. IDENTIKEY is VASCO’s authentication server for strong user authentication and e-signature validation. This new version offers PCI DSS compliancy, which is important for financial institutions and all other organisations that store, process or transmit card information.

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a worldwide information security standard created by major credit card companies. The standard represents a set of security rules helping organisations to handle card data safely. By offering PCI-DSS compliance in IDENTIKEY Server 3.3 VASCO can ensure that all customers using the server for authentication requests are compliant with the rules set in this standard.

IDENTIKEY Server is a comprehensive authentication server offering a one-time password (OTP) and e-signature validation with full management and reporting capability. Specifically for the banking industry the reporting tools in IDENTIKEY Server 3.3 have been extended so that more accurate analyses and reports can be drawn. Business continuity is assured with IDENTIKEY System and Performance Monitoring, which will warn organisations whenever a performance issue or system problem occurs.

“With IDENTIKEY Server 3.3 we offer a total PCI-DSS compliant authentication solution. With this update we meet the demands of all organisations that require the same compliancy, such as financial institutions, governments and global enterprises,” says Jan Valcke, President and COO at VASCO Data Security.
