AirDefense, Motorola, Stratix Present Info About Payment Card Industry Compliance

AirDefense, a wireless local area network (LAN) security service provider, and Motorola, a company that produces wireless networking, broadband, and embedded system technology, announced the release of a payment card industry (PCI) compliance overview podcast, the first in a series of PCI-themed education podcasts.

The podcast is sponsored by Stratix Corporation, a mobile enterprise systems integrator and value added reseller of Motorola (News - Alert) and AirDefense, and features Amit Sinha, chief technology officer at AirDefense, and Mark Self, vice president of retail industry solutions at Motorola.

AirDefense (News - Alert), based in Atlanta, Georgia, provides enterprise wireless protection for Fortune 500 companies, healthcare organizations, and high-security government agencies. Its wireless protection technology features solutions such as rogue wireless detection, policy enforcement, and intrusion prevention within and outside the physical locations and networks of organizations.

Stratix Corporation delivers software, hardware, and integration services supporting mission critical operations and real-time visibility into each area of a company's mobile asset network.

According to Sinha, the PCI-compliance podcast is useful to every organization that processes or transmits debit or credit card data of clients.

"While wireless LANs are proving their value to retailers with the flexibility of easily deploying checkout registers plus assisting with inventory management, the vulnerability of unencrypted wireless extends beyond the merchant to the customer and banks. However, the ultimate responsibility of auditing and regulating wireless falls on the retailer," said Sinha.

"With the assistance of Motorola, known as a worldwide leader in helping companies become PCI compliant, our podcast continues the conversation of what it means to be compliant, secure and assured in one's wireless standing,” Sinha added.
