InTechnology Launches PCI-certified Managed Payment Service With Partners Phoenix Managed Networks and Mako Networks

HARROGATE, England, April 16, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

            New solution first to offer consolidated card payment, voice and data

                           services over one secure connection

    InTechnology today launched a PCI-certified managed service called PaySecure
Connect(TM). The cloud services provider has partnered with Phoenix Managed Networks and
Mako Networks to deliver a resilient MPLS network and a secure PCI-certified payment
infrastructure which is also capable of delivering managed voice and data services over
the same secure connection.

    PaySecure Connect has been developed to overcome the complexity of achieving and
maintaining compliance with PCI data security standards and is the first package to offer
consolidated payments authorisation between the retailer and banks with a scalable
communication and managed services network.

    Natalie Duffield, customer management director at InTechnology said: "The recent
security breach at card processing firm Global Payments which exposed Mastercard, Visa and
Discover's customers' credit card details throws a spotlight on the necessity for
maintaining payment security vigilance.

    PaySecure Connect provides an easily implemented, fully secure retail network
environment for payment and managed voice and data services. It is a reliable and
cost-effective way for retailers - and other organisations who take credit card
transactions - to reduce the risk of non-compliance with PCI regulations while benefiting
from the latest connectivity technologies, reduced costs, and improved speeds and
performance."

    Alan Stephenson-Brown, UK director of Phoenix Managed Networks commented: "Maintaining
PCI compliance is complex even for the experts and is certainly beyond most merchants.
PaySecure Connect is the first that has been externally certified level 1 PCI DSS
compliant but also crucially it is easy to implement and takes away a significant part of
the burden faced by merchants when attempting to achieve compliance.

    "With PaySecure Connect there are a number of operational advantages. Rapid
transaction times, improved customer throughput and 24/7 support is included with every
licence. No matter how many managed services you opt for, you'll only have to deal with
one expert supplier."

    This converged connectivity delivers significant cost savings to multi-site,
multi-checkout retailers and businesses that need to take card payments, as valuable
seconds that increase customer throughput are shaved off each transaction time. In
addition, PaySecure Connect adds further value by removing many of the in-house resource
costs needed to establish and adhere to PCI standards.

    PaySecure Connect is the ultimate one-stop shop offering for retail environments:

   
    - Reduced complexity - simplifying the compliance process
    - Advanced security - keeping retailers compliant
    - Cost savings - providing better performance
    - Seamless integration - consolidating multiple services
    - Scalability - adding services as and when they are needed
