Re: Retailers that dont encrypt customer information risk database breach
My customers card data is never stored on my server and I know my card processor encrypts their data. Don't Visa and Mastercard's new compliance rules prohibit storage of credit card numbers?
I'm curious as to why merchants don't ask their site developers if the cart software provides secure, encrypted database storage of customers account information. |

Quote:why merchants don't ask their site developers if the cart software provides secure, encrypted database storage of customers account information ...because they don't know a thing about web sites, shopping cart software, or databases and trust their web developers and software providers to make the right decisions would be my guess. Software developers have to share some of the blame for selling products that they know aren't secure and failing to mention the little fact that their $500-$1000 product doesn't encrypt data that is stored in its database.
