Improving the security of payment card processing

Lufthansa Systems represents airlines on the PCI Security Standards Council

Your airline is looking for a solution to protect credit card or other data of your customers according to increasing requirements of data security standards? You want to comply especially with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)?

Then we are your right business partner! Lufthansa Systems has the needed know-how when it comes to meeting PCI challenges for the aviation industry.

Being a regular member of the PCI Security Standards Council since 2008, we were officially nominated in 2009 as member of the Board of Advisors of this important organization. Lufthansa Systems now works on the Board of Advisors contributing the know-how of an airline IT provider and representing the interests of the airline industry.

The tasks performed by the newly elected body include the following:
  • representation of over 500 credit card institutes and international companies working with credit cards,
  • advocacy of the continuous improvement of security standards.

With the election on to the Board of Advisors of the PCI Security Standards Council Lufthansa Systems is one of the first airline IT service providers to be present precisely where PCI requirements and their individual interpretation are discussed.

The PCI DSS competence of Lufthansa Systems is also reflected in our innovative solution –
the PCI Compliance Engine. This product facilitates PCI DSS compliance with little effort. Instead of protecting the credit card number individually within the affected systems by applying all the numereous security rules, the engine isolates the credit card number centrally and replaces it with an "artificial ID". In this way, the application is taken out of the scope of PCI DSS and by that fulfils the security requirements. At the same time the consequences for the processes remain manageable.

Many companies already place their trust in innovative solutions of Lufthansa Systems. You can also profit from our expertise in the field of PCI DSS. Contact our experts!
