Liaison Technologies' Tokenization-as-a-Service Passes PCI-DSS 2.0 Audit

Liaison engaged Trustwave®, an authorized third-party assessor for all major payment card associations, to conduct the assessment of the TaaS cardholder data environment hosted at the Verizon Computing as a Service hosting facility in Beltsville, Maryland. The cardholder data environment consists of the perimeter and internal firewalls, the Liaison Protect Token Manager application, the production VLAN, the Web VLAN and the VzCaaS Management VLAN. The PCI requirements are comprised of VISA's Cardholder Information Security Program and MasterCard's Site Data Protection program, as then as Discover's and American Express's Data Security Operating Policies.
