VNPAY services attain global security certification

The six services certified are VNPAY Cloud, VNPAY Payment Gateway, VNPAY SmartPOS, VNPAY SoftPOS, VCB Tap to Phone, and the token service provider solution VNTAP.

To attain this certification, VNPAY’s services complied with 12 requirements and six core principles, including building and maintaining a secure network and systems, protecting cardholder data, and maintaining a vulnerability management program.

Compliance with the PCI DSS standard is mandatory for all businesses that store, process, or transmit payment card data.

The standard, overseen by the PCI Security Standards Council, is established by five international payment organizations: Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, and JCB.

Level 1 represents the highest level of security for payment card data of service providers.

PCI DSS 4.0 imposes stringent requirements for information security risk assessment, with a focus on protecting cardholder data.

This includes continuous improvements to protect data across the entire network.

In addition, based on technology trends and recent hacker attack methods, the standard includes requirements related to multi-factor authentication, anti-phishing, and social engineering, as well as expanded requirements for cloud computing technology and services.

According to a VNPAY representative, the company is continuously improving and enhancing security standards for its services to meet Level 1, addressing customers’ information security needs in the digital environment.

VNPAY also allocates resources and time to develop services that comply with international security standards.

“This certification underscores our strong commitment to the security of customer information and data,” the representative said. “We will continue to invest and upgrade the security system to ensure a safe and secure experience for customers.”

VNPAY Cloud offers cloud computing and AI services for large enterprises, financial partners, banks, and fintechs.

Following the future development trend of cloud models, the company is focusing on developing its cloud services as software-as-a-service (SaaS) products, allowing businesses to easily reach their customers, expand the digital ecosystem, and meet rapidly growing needs.

SmartPOS is a comprehensive payment solution, enabling businesses to deploy various payment methods easily.

The devices have built-in features including card payment, QR code payment, invoice printing, and barcode scanning, thereby making payment flexible and fast.

SoftPOS transforms Android smartphones into POS devices that enable contactless transactions in line with EMV payment standards.

This product not only enhances the company’s capabilities in payment technology but also opens up bright prospects for Vietnam’s payment industry to grow stronger in the future.

VCB Tap to Phone is a tap-to-pay solution on smartphones, transforming any NFC-enabled Android smartphones into Visa’s contactless POS devices or enabling payments on other smartphones integrated with cards with just a few steps.

With VCB Tap to Phone, businesses can process transactions by tapping into smartphones rather than using traditional POS devices.

The service offers convenience and flexibility in payment while reducing investment costs for businesses.

VNTAP is a modern card payment technology that is integrated into the VNPAY e-wallet.

Card information is encoded into tokens on the application, turning Android phones into cards with touch payment technology, allowing customers to pay anytime, anywhere at POS machines (with NFC) without a physical card.

The VNPAY Payment Gateway is an intermediary gateway connecting businesses with banks.

Customers can use account and payment features built into 40 mobile banking applications or linked to 15 e-wallets to pay for transactions.
