JavaScript Tokenization vs. Hosted Payments: What’s Best for Your Online Experience?

That’s why it’s more important than ever for software providers and their end users to employ security technologies that protect systems and networks from handling or storing sensitive payment details captured in online forms. Implementing these solutions also reduces the scope of vulnerable data, which simplifies PCI DSS compliance validation.

What Defines PCI Scope?

Whether you’re a player in the payments space or a business processing credit cards, you’ve heard of Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance. With the intention to optimize security around credit and debit card transactions and protect cardholder information, all parties involved in facilitating a transaction fall within PCI scope.
