1. PCI Compliance
What is PCI Scanning? and why should you buy it from us?
First - a quick definition.
PCI Scanning stands for "Payment Card Industry" scanning. It involves having a PCI ASV (Approved Scanning Vendor) scan any and all IP addresses that the public has access to, related to your website or your site's transaction process.
Basically, when your merchant account provider or bank asks you to conduct PCI Scanning, they are asking you to ensure that all IP addresses that feed into or out from your site are clean and virus-free.
But PCI Scanning, like all things security-based, is much more than a necessary evil for your site. It's not just like checking off "get a tax ID number" or "set up 1-800 number" off your list of things you HAVE to do when you set up your website.
If done right, it increases your sales! It helps you sell more. A secure consumer is a ready buyer. So while the name "PCI Scanning" might be a little boring, the way it puts more sales in your shopping cart is anything but!
Now that you know what PCI Scanning is, and why you should get it (and why you should be raring to get it) let's talk about why you should get it from Trust Guard.
We help you do it right by combining our popular trust seals with our powerful daily and quarterly PCI Scanning services. Our PCI services are catered toward online businesses that want to protect their website and customer information against hackers and online vulnerabilities.
