HP Releases New PCI Compliance Product

HP today announced its Secure Payment Services solution, which is designed to supports its clients' efforts to reduce the costs and challenges associated with Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance.

The solution also secures e-commerce payments by enabling merchants to route payments directly from their website to HP, which facilitates the data transfer to the authorizer, the company said.
