PCI Compliance in the Contact Center
Administrators of Contact Centers have 2 major bosses when it comes to maintaining a secure credit card environment: the companies that issue the cards and customers who are nervous about falling victim to credit card fraud or identity theft. Businesses who fail to maintain a secure environment for processing, storing, and transmitting credit card information face severe and lasting consequences. The issuing card companies can not only suspend their privilege to accept their cards, they can also levy monthly fines ranging from $50 to $90 for each card compromised. And since the fines are retroactive, the offending business is on the hook for all the months their customer data was endangered.
