CSP PassPort to Compliance

Over the past few months, the coronavirus pandemic has upended our daily lives and tested our resilience during an incredibly difficult time. This has exposed the best in some of us. Regrettably, fraudsters have taken the opportunity to develop inventive new scams, targeting people and organizations when they are at their most vulnerable.

In these uncertain times, organizations are relying on CSP’s trusted security solutions more than ever to ensure the integrity of their applications.

CSP PassPort^® and PCI-DSS Compliance

CSP PassPort provides important security features for NonStop servers (with or without Safeguard) and greatly expands the Guardian security package.

While Safeguard provides a range of authorization and authentication controls, additional controls are required to manage how users log onto TACL and OSH, and what privileged commands they can use. In addition to this, once a user has logged on, it is critical to control which activities they can then carry out.

CSP PassPort addresses some of the following PCI-DSS requirements:

• Requirement 7
  • Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know
• Requirement 8
  • Identify and authenticate access to system components
• Requirement 10
  • Track and monitor all access to network resources and cardholder data
• Requirement 12
  • Maintain a policy that addresses information security for all personnel

It offers superior user authentication, command control, session control, accountability, and auditing capabilities not available with Guardian or Safeguard security.
