ViaWest has announced the launch of its KINECTed PCI Compliant Cloud, a purpose-built, audit-ready cloud solution that was created using industry-leading virtualization and security technology. This service offers protection for companies that accept, store, process or transmit credit card data.
In a 2013 study, the Ponemon Institute found that 35% of data breaches identified were the result of company negligence. The study also confirmed that companies with an incident response plan and a strong security posture can significantly decrease the cost per breached record.
“The importance of choosing the right providers to help transition your company beyond compliance and into a secure infrastructure cannot be emphasized enough,” states Matt Getzelman, director, PCI Practice at CoalFire. “ViaWest’s attention to detail on their compliant cloud solutions and secure infrastructure provides a level of security in which customers can feel confident.”
“We’ve designed our PCI Compliant Cloud solution from the ground up to satisfy the needs of customers who want to protect themselves against PCI DSS non-compliance,” says Jason Carolan, chief technology officer at ViaWest. “Our virtual private cloud leverages a dedicated, secure network infrastructure that enables data security in the cloud without having to invest in additional hardware, software, or in-house compliance expertise.”
Backed by ViaWest’s team of security and compliance experts, KINECTed PCI Compliant Cloud comes complete with:
- A fully audited infrastructure
- Fully staffed compliance department
- Security solutions to protect beyond compliance requirements
- 24x7 customer support with highly trained engineers
