"Going through the validation process for PCI DSS 3.0 compliance keeps us at the forefront of cloud-based providers who can handle credit card transactions that involve APIs and cloud integration," said Alistair Farquharson, CTO of SOA Software. "We invested in this next round of compliance as part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a well-governed, high-quality IT service environment."

It also monitors, defends against and mitigates cyber assaults and threats. Features include antivirus management, vulnerability scanning, a secure audit trail and resource tracking along with round-the-clock technical support by comprehensively trained SOA Software staff to maximize uptime and availability and enhance security.
