Recurly Achieves Level 1 Payment Card Industry (PCI-DSS) Security Compliance
Recurly Subscription Billing Service Provides Enterprise-Class Security To Subscription-based Web, Mobile and SaaS businesses
San Francisco, CA – January, 19th, 2011—Recurly, the leading subscription billing services provider for developers, announced today that it has achieved confirmation of its status as a PCI Level 1 secure service. Web, Mobile, SaaS and Publishing companies can now outsource their recurring billing management to Recurly without having to invest heavily in their own infrastructure to ensure their customers the highest standard of excellence for payment data security.
PCI-DSS is a comprehensive payment card security standard that evaluates payment account data security by assessing a firm’s network architecture, software design, security policies, procedures and protective practices. The PCI requirements were developed by the PCI Security Standards Council--which includes American Express, Discover, JCB International, MasterCard and Visa--to help facilitate broad adoption of data security best practices worldwide.
To achieve a Validated Level 1 Service Provider Status, Recurly chose Trustwave to validate compliance with PCI-DSS for service providers. The Level 1 requirement applies to any provider who stores, processes or transmits more than 300,000 transactions annually.
"This is far more important than just an accreditation milestone for our company" said Isaac Hall, CEO of Recurly. "Maintaining a secure service on behalf of our customers is one of the core values of our company. It is specifically what allows us to give our customers the assurance that Recurly is a company they can trust to handle sensitive payment-related data on their behalf."
"Recurly understands that securing their environment starts with validating compliance with the PCI-DSS." said Robert J. McCullen, President and CEO of Trustwave. "By implementing the proper security measures, Recurly has taken the right steps toward adhering to security best practices laid out in the PCI-DSS."
