March 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Sysnet Global Solutions, a leading worldwide provider of information security and assurance services, today announced that they have attained the status of approved Payment Forensics Investigator (PFI), confirmed by the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI-SSC). Sysnet are now listed on the PCI-SCC website as approved PCI Forensic Investigators;
www.pcisecuritystandards.org/approved_companies_providers/pfi_companies.php.

The PCI Security Standards Council’s PFI program establishes and maintains the rules and requirements regarding eligibility, selection and performance of companies that provide forensic investigation services to ensure they meet PCI Security Standards.  The PFI program aims to help simplify and expedite procedures for approving and engaging forensic investigators.  The PFI list will replace the previous ‘QFI’ list as of March 1, 2011.  After March 1, the card brands will only accept forensic reports from companies that are on the PFI list.

With the growing threat of credit card fraud across the globe and more aggressive tactics shown by organised criminal groups, if an Account Data Compromise (ADC) does occur and an investigation is required, Sysnet are well equipped to minimise the potential loss and ensure that the affected organisation is back to trading in a safe, compliant manner as soon as possible.

“This achievement is the result of the cumulative effort of a number of people at Sysnet and we are delighted that we are now on the PFI list” said Nick Prescot, Senior Consultant of the Data Forensics team at Sysnet Global Solutions “Whilst we wish that no organisation suffers a data compromise, we can now demonstrate that the Sysnet approach to quality, dedication and thoroughness will ensure that, should the worst happen, the end result will be an organisation that is not only above and beyond the requirements of today’s compliance but also well prepared for the future.”

In preparing and rehearsing against potential account data compromises, Sysnet Global Solutions offer incident management workshops, intelligence briefings on the latest trends, briefings on best practice in securing personal data, guidance on how to deal with the legal aspects of an investigation and insurance services that enable organisations to be best prepared in the event of a data compromise.

“This is a very important achievement for Sysnet” said Gabriel Moynagh, General Manager at Sysnet Global Solutions “Our PFI status compliments the extensive range of products and services we currently provide and further increases our ability to assist our clients in protecting vital business information assets.”
