Joining other products which already have PCI certification (such as Artema Hybrid, PIN Hybrid, Modular etc.), this means that all the principal Artema products have now been tested and approved for PCI PED(1).
Further to achieving PCI approval on the Artema product range, Thales has also launched PCI versions of the Encrypting PIN Pad range, Wyborne unattended terminal, and Wymix retail PIN pad.
As a result, Thales customers can now have complete confidence that the products they continue to purchase from the beginning of 2008 will meet industry mandates for PCI certification.
