Protecting Your Fixed Function and PCI Systems

As an IT security professional in the retail industry, you need to adhere to the Payment Card Industry (PCI) regulations and to ensure that critical transaction systems such as POS terminals and kiosks are fully protected and operating normally at all times. Given the importance of the information and confidential cardholder data they handle, these systems are often prime targets for hackers. Whether you face external or internal threats, our award-winning application whitelisting solution prevents the execution of all unauthorized applications without impacting your system performance.

Our application whitelisting solution was specifically designed to stop the execution of any malicious code without compromising the effectiveness or efficiency of your IT staff. BOUNCER was designed for real users like yourself to meet guidelines, offer unmatched security, provide intuitive management, and manage change your organization needs to meet its business objectives.

New Cyber Threats and Challenges

As more sophisticated cyber-attacks and malware target your critical retail transaction and payment systems, you face a number of security challenges, including:

• Protecting critical business and customer information

• Controlling access to your systems and confidential cardholder data

• Maintaining the availability and reliability of your fixed function and PCI systems

How BOUNCER Helps You

BOUNCER addresses your unique needs for a security solution. It is ideally suited to protect the configuration and integrity of your critical payment systems. As the most tamper-proof and easiest to manage whitelisting solution available, BOUNCER doesn't need to be updated and reactively patched like traditional blacklisted-based endpoint security offerings. When the whitelist of approved applications is automatically created from each control system, it locks down that configuration eliminating the need for patching every time a new threat is revealed. Whenever a new version of your system's software is deployed, updates to BOUNCER's whitelist are automatically added and the system remains completely protected the entire time.

In addition to superior protection against even zero-day attacks, BOUNCER's application whitelisting is gaining widespread industry acceptance because it addresses the operational realities associated with transaction systems that blacklist-based solutions cannot.

• BOUNCER continues to provide protection without requiring signature or patch updates, so it can constantly secures systems that are not always connected to the Internet

• BOUNCER-protected systems remain online until regularly scheduled maintenance windows, instead of requiring downtime for emergency vulnerability patches

• BOUNCER prevents many memory-based attacks within whitelisted applications themselves, increasing security even further

• BOUNCER prevents many memory-based attacks within whitelisted applications themselves, increasing security even further

• BOUNCER does not impact system performance — a significant advantage over resource-hungry security applications like blacklist-based antivirus

• BOUNCER helps you meet Data Security Standard (DSS) requirements around maintaining a vulnerability-management systems
