If you have a POS terminal with a PIN pad there’s another PCI that will affect you. It’s called PCI PTS – PCI PIN Transaction Security. It’s aimed at PIN pad devices but brick and mortar merchants need to know about it.
If you’re planning on buying a new PIN pad device between now and May of 2011, choose wisely. It may not be compliant when the new standards come into play.
For some details on this new problem, there’s a good article over at Evan Schuman’s Storefront Backtalk. It has some good references including where to find a list of approved devices.
Go on over and give it a read!
