Bluefin’s PCI-validated P2PE solution secures card transactions by encrypting all data within a PCI-approved point of entry swipe or keypad device, preventing clear-text cardholder data from being available in the device or the merchant’s system where it could be exposed to malware.
Decryptx brings the security of PCI-validated P2PE to Tier 1 and Tier 2 merchants with no change to their acquiring relationship. Heartland will integrate with Bluefin for Decryptx, and provide the solution to merchants on the Heartland platform.
