Pleasanton, California - (March 26, 2007) – Software Development, Inc. (SDI), a leading supplier of retail point of sale software, is helping its retail customers protect sensitive credit card data and meet new PCI data security standards with assistance from NetLib®.
The protection of credit card data from unauthorized access is no longer an option but a high priority for most retailers. SDI has incorporated NetLib® Encryptionizer® into its retail point of sale applications to satisfy their customers’ new and demanding PCI data security requirements and provide a secure shopping environment. With the help of NetLib Encryptionizer, SDI’s point of sale applications encrypt sensitive credit card numbers at the time the card number is entered eliminating any possibility that actual card numbers can be accessed by unauthorized personnel.
“Providing our customers with the tools they need to successfully manage their business and stay ahead of industry requirements is a very important part of our business”, said Tony Miller, Director of Marketing for SDI. “We selected NetLib Encryptionizer because SDI wanted to provide its customer with proven encryption technology that was cost effective, scalable and easy to deploy in a large number of retail store locations”. “NetLib Encryptionizer has met or exceeded all of these requirements and has provided us with excellent service and the flexibility to satisfy our customer’s varied data security requirements”. “Needless to say we are extremely happy with our decision to partner with NetLib”.
"We take the business of protecting our customer's data very seriously,” said Neil Weicher, founder and CTO of NetLib. “For years we've pointed out that sensitive data, such as credit card numbers, were at much higher risk stored on disk than flying over the internet. Until recently, businesses erroneously reversed the assessment of that risk."
NetLib, a Microsoft Certified Partner, is the only vendor in this space to offer whole database, backup, column encryption and the most comprehensive and flexible approach to meeting demanding security requirements. NetLib recently received a U.S. Patent for its data encryption solution, Encryptionizer, which eases and advances the state of the art of enhanced security for protecting sensitive data. Encryptionizer is a highly scalable and easy-to-deploy solution to meet critical business security requirements.
"Providing a best-in-class yet easy-to-use solution to meet our customers’ critical business security needs is NetLib's top priority," said Elisabeth Stonehill, vice president of product development and sales for NetLib. "We were thrilled that SDI selected NetLib to ensure their retail customers data security requirements are met. We strongly support each of our customer and their specific or unique market needs, which is why we have worked closely with SDI to set up a flexible licensing plan specific to the needs of chain retailers.” NetLib’s industry expertise and innovative products enable a unique approach to the protection of data and intellectual property. NetLib’s patented solutions are affordable and require minimal time and effort to deploy and administer, resulting in enterprise-class security for companies, retailers, government agencies and developers alike.
