The Benefits of SmartPROTECT

Secure Your Network

01

SECURE YOUR NETWORK

In this data-driven business world, your company can be accessed and breached anywhere at any time from multiple devices. PCI compliance reduces the risk of a data breach occurring by making it more difficult for hackers to gain unauthorized access to your network. This essentially protects your network against unwanted break-in attempts.

02

PROTECT YOUR CARDHOLDER’S DATA and PATIENT’S SENSITIVE INFORMATION

When cardholders make online or in-person transactions using their credit cards, they must be assured that their data will be safe. Protecting cardholders’ data is your responsibility and with SmartPROTECT, we make it easier. The same goes for patient’s sensitive information in medical offices.

AVOID FINES

PCI compliance can be extremely expensive including fines, attorney fees, non-compliance fees, and more. After a breach, your business is imposed a per transaction fine, not to mention the requirement to notify every cardholder, pay for their credit monitoring, reverse damages, and even face lawsuits. Such expensive measures will expose your business to unwanted risk which is why over 40% of small businesses will close down after a breach, simply because they cannot afford the costs involved in the aftermath.
