Soundbite Communications Expands Role in Payment Transactions With Compliance From Payment Card Industry

SoundBite Communications Inc., a leading provider of on-demand automated voice messaging solutions, today announced its compliance as a service provider under the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard.  Compliance with the industry standard is a critical requirement in order for any merchant or service provider to process, store, or transmit cardholder data. 

The PCI Data Security Standard is a set of comprehensive requirements for enhancing payment account data security that was developed by the founding payment brands of the PCI Security Standards Council, including American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB, MasterCard Worldwide and Visa International.  This latest milestone in SoundBite’s ongoing security strategy demonstrates that the on-demand provider supports the best practices developed by the PCI Security Standards Council to protect sensitive payment card information from being compromised.
