Bluefin and Intelligent Contacts team up for P2PE solution

PCI-validated P2PE secures card transactions by encrypting all data within a PCI-approved point of entry swipe or keypad device, preventing clear-text cardholder data from being available in the device or the merchant’s system where it could be exposed to malware. Decryptx, Bluefin’s Decryption as a Service (DaaS) product, provides all of the security of Bluefin’s PCI-validated P2PE solution suite through the Intelligent Contacts platform.

Benefits of a PCI-validated P2PE solution for merchants include reduced PCI compliance and scope, saving time and money on annual audits, and the assurance that the technology has been vetted and approved by the PCI Security Standards Council (SSC). And through the partnership, Bluefin handles all device management, chain of custody and customer support for Intelligent Contacts clients.
