Data Breeches and Your POS

18 Jul Data Breeches and Your POS

Many small merchants think that only large merchants have security breaches, but honestly, that is just not true. Small businesses are a substantial target for data breeches. As a First Data company, we take your security serious. First Data has partnered with TransArmor, a multi-layered security and compliance solution that helps merchants to protect their data, their customers and their brand. By offering Clover® to our clients, we know that your clients are protected too.

Clover has gone the extra mile to show that our advanced solutions are among the most secure in the industry. Clover Mini, Clover Mobile, and Clover Flex P2PE (point-to-point encryption) solution has been validated as a PCI Security Standards Council solution. This means Clover POS terminals along with First Data TransArmor have met comprehensive, rigorous, independent testing to validate our P2PE implementation. The strength of the Clover P2PE solution comes from its secure processor. ALL card data (swipe, dip, or tap) is immediately encrypted with TransArmor in the secure processor giving a distinct security advantage over software solutions. What does this mean for your business? That the card data never leaves the Clover terminal unencrypted – keeping you clientele safe!
