Monday, July 27, 2015 — 16:27:34 (EDT)

London, July 22, 2015 – Optimal Payments, a global provider of online payment solutions, today announces a new white paper that reveals how merchants can improve their productivity and security through the new PCI DSS 3.1 compliance standards.

With card payment fraud on the rise, the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) has further tightened security requirements with respect to online payment processing with the launch of Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS) 3.1 standard.

However, the new rigorous requirements create an opportunity for merchants to enhance their productivity and leave them more protected than ever. The white paper takes a look at why PCI-DSS 3.1 is a good investment for merchants and what steps they need to take to be compliant.
