Introduction - VeriFone Vx520 Implementation Manual

1. Introduction

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) defines a set of requirements for the
configuration, operation, and security of payment card transactions in your business. If you use the
VeriFone Vx terminal in your business to store, process, or transmit payment card information, this
standard and this guide apply to you.
The requirements are designed for use by assessors conducting onsite reviews and for merchants
who must validate compliance with the PCI DSS.
For more details about PCI DSS, please see the following link:

This guide is updated whenever there are changes in Point VxPC software that affect PCI DSS and is
also reviewed annually and updated as needed to reflect changes in the software as well as the PCI
standards. Guidelines how to download the latest version of this document could be found on the

The Payment Card Industry (PCI) has also set the requirements for software applications that store,
process or transmit cardholder data. These requirements are defined by the Payment Card Industry
Payment Application Data Security Standard (PCI PA-DSS). In order to facilitate for you to get a PCI
DSS assessment the Point VxPC (Point Vx Payment Core) software has been validated by PCI to
comply with the PCI PA-DSS requirements.
Note: This guide refers to VeriFone Vx terminals using the Point VxPC (Point Vx Payment Core) SW.
The version of the Point VxPC is listed on the PCI web site "List of Validated Payment Applications"
that have been validated in accordance with PCI PA-DSS. If you cannot find the version of your
Point VxPC on that list please contact your helpdesk in order to upgrade your terminal.
