Protect your customers and ensure PCI compliance at the highest level
Akamai helps our customers meet stringent PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliance more easily by offloading payment security to the Akamai Intelligent Platform. We deploy Edge Tokenization to eliminate the need for businesses to process or store consumers' credit credentials. The result is that merchant customers need only process and store unique tokens - not consumer credit data, reducing and potentially removing them from PCI compliance scope for online transactions."Use of payment tokens (aka "Tokenization") is becoming a mainstream technology. About 15% of Fortune 1000 companies either are starting or have started to tokenize their payment data, and over 70% cite it as their long-term strategy."
