Omaha, Nebraska (February 19, 2007) - Solutionary, a leading provider of security services to the payment card industry, has been recertified by the PCI Security Standards Council as a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA), including certification to perform Payment Application Best Practices (PABP) assessments. A longtime leader in the payments industry, Solutionary has been a certified assessor for over five years and an approved scanning vendor for over three.

"We're excited about our recertification by the PCI Security Standards Council. This industry has really matured since the early days when each card brand operated its own compliance program and none were widely adopted," said Hugh Voigt, EVP Product Management.

Solutionary's approach combines cost-effective, web-based PCI DSS compliance tools with a highly experienced consulting team, providing cost-effective, quality PCI support. Clients can access a variety of tools to support their PCI compliance programs, including PCI e-Learning, automated self-assessment support, year around compliance task management, breaking PCI-related news, and more. When clients need on-site consulting, Solutionary certified team has the PCI audit and security experience required to offer practical, real-world risk mitigation advice, not just a checkbox audit. Solutionary certified consultants average ten years of experience.

"Recent breaches such as TJX highlight the importance of securing cardholder data and complying with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard," concluded Mr. Voigt. "We believe our comprehensive approach to helping clients achieve and maintain PCI compliance will continue to gain market share versus check-the-box validation approaches."
