Motorola, now in PCI

Motorola announced that the company's enterprise mobility business is now a member of the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council. The council was established in 2004 to help prevent theft of consumers' financial account data in retail environments such as home repair, department and grocery stores. Motorola's enterprise WLAN portfolio offers a standard feature set -- requiring no additional hardware or software -- for a simple, economical solution to PCI compliance. The enterprise WLAN infrastructure products include an integrated firewall between a company's wireless traffic and the rest of the network, and support the latest encryption and authentication standards available from IEEE, including Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and WPA2. The portfolio includes intrusion detection system (IDS) functionality, allowing retailers to determine what mobile devices are connected to their network.
