The cost and impact of data security breaches has increased significantly due to merchants not adequately protecting their customer card data. As a result, HSBC Merchant Services LLP has created Global Fortress, designed as a first line of defence to provide you with the necessary resources to help you in your fight against fraudsters.
All too often merchants suffer data breaches which results in fines from the Card Schemes just because they didn't take the simple steps to secure their customer card data. Essentially, this is the personal, sensitive, data stored on or in the card that is key to making a transaction. It is your responsibility to secure your customer card data if you process card transactions.
Global Fortress aims to simplify the journey for you by giving you access to the resources you need to help protect your customer card data and achieve the globally accepted Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). This standard is mandated by the Card Schemes and aims to reduce customer card data fraud.
