Hypercom's Optimum 4200 Countertop and Mobile Products Achieve PCI PTS 2.1 Security Approval
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jun 15, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- High security electronic and digital transactions solutions provider Hypercom Corporation (HYC) today announced that both its Optimum T4200-2.0 countertop and M4200-2.0 mobile product lines have achieved PCI PTS 2.1 certification, the payment security standard formerly called PCI PED. Hypercom's countertop and mobile terminal product family is the first among the top three electronic payment providers to achieve this rigorous security standard.
The certification covers the Company's fixed countertop and mobile payment terminals sold in markets throughout Europe, including the Optimum T4210-2.0 (dial), T4220-2.0 (Ethernet with dial), T4230-2.0 (GPRS with dial) countertop and M4230-2.0 GPRS and M4240-2.0 Bluetooth mobile card payment terminals. These products include additional features such as USB host and client, SD (Secure Digital) card reader, extra serial ports and space-saving ergonomics.
Each Optimum terminal also incorporates Hypercom's full X509 PKI (public key infrastructure) HyperSafe(R) Secure security layer to protect the terminal and applications from hacking and malware attacks. Protecting the operational procedures and maintenance of payment terminals is just as important as protecting cardholder data. Hypercom's HyperSafe suite of security products defends terminals from rogue applications and malware, protects the terminal management system from communicating with fraudulent terminals and provides the industry's only remote key management system. The key benefit for banks, processors and large retailers: protects their investment in the point of sale estate, reduces the potential for fraudulent use of terminals and ensures the secure transport of cryptographic keys.
In meeting the latest PIN entry device security requirements set for newly introduced products by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC), Hypercom's popular Optimum 4200 products are in compliance for sales until 2017.
"Hypercom continues to achieve the security benchmarks that its competitors seek to attain," said T.K. Cheung, Vice President, Global Quality and Security, Hypercom Corporation. "No competitor has a better security lineup than Hypercom, and we are committed to delivering business solutions that enable millions of businesses and consumers to safely conduct electronic transactions each and every day."
Hypercom's leadership in payment security is recognized globally. The company is a founding member of the Secure POS Vendor Alliance (SPVA), and was the first to introduce an industry standards-based remote key injection product, and the first electronic payment solutions provider to implement end-to-end card data encryption.

Hypercom's HyperSafe Secure Meets SPVA Requirement Guidelines for End-to-End Payment Data Protection
Last Update: 5/27/2010 9:05:00 AM
Hypercom's HyperSafe Secure Meets SPVA Requirement Guidelines for End-to-End Payment Data Protection
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 27, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Hypercom Corporation (HYC) today announced that its existing HyperSafe(R) Secure suite of payment data encryption technology meets the new security requirement guidelines issued by the Secure POS Vendor Alliance (SPVA). Hypercom's HyperSafe Secure suite is available globally.
Hypercom introduced the payment industry's first end-to-end encryption technology in 2006 with its HyperSafe Secure EFTSec Server(TM). EFTSec is used by major banks, is licensed to and implemented by several major terminal manufacturers, and is the defacto industry standard for payment terminal initiated link encryption in Asia. Unlike recently introduced competitor solutions that require the purchase of custom equipment or utilize third party decryption services, EFTSec leverages a bank's or retailer's existing network infrastructure.
In October 2009, Hypercom announced five key initiatives to boost the payment card industry's ability to thwart payment card data fraud. Last month, the Company expanded that effort, teaming with First Data Corporation to further combat card data fraud.
The just-announced SPVA end-to-end security requirement guidelines are designed to promote information security best practices and provide merchants with a clear understanding of what encryption features should provide to reduce information security risks related to payment account data; and, as a subsequent benefit, reduce a bank's or retailer's burden of compliance with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards. The SPVA's objective is to create an industry encryption framework for payment account data to adequately secure card payment account data before it enters the application environment.
"It is absolutely essential that our industry deliver innovative and highly adaptable security solutions that meet each customer's individual technology choices and implementation requirements to protect cardholder data and preserve cardholder trust in the integrity of the electronic payment system. We are delivering just that with our HyperSafe Secure suite of solutions," said T.K. Cheung, Vice President, Global Quality and Security, Hypercom Corporation. "Hypercom offers the industry's widest array of payment card protection technologies to protect businesses and cardholders globally."
Hypercom's HyperSafe Secure suite delivers the payment industry's broadest range of protection options to protect businesses and simplify implementation, and includes solutions from Voltage Security, Inc., MagTek, Inc. and First Data Corporation.
Hypercom's HyperSafe Secure suite incorporates Hypercom's full X509 PKI (public key infrastructure) HyperSafe security layer embedded in every Hypercom Optimum card payment terminal to protect the terminal and applications from hacking and malware attacks.
Protecting the operational procedures and maintenance of payment terminals is just as important as protecting cardholder data. Hypercom's HyperSafe suite of security products defends terminals from rogue applications and malware, protects the terminal management system from communicating with fraudulent terminals, and provides the industry's only remote key management system. The key benefit for banks, processors and large retailers: protects their investment in the point of sale estate, reduces the potential for fraudulent use of terminals and ensures the secure transport of cryptographic keys.
