Radiant Systems’ Hospitality Division takes the security of our systems very seriously.  We are committed to working together with our clients and partners to ensure the most secure operating environment possible.  The baseline for this commitment is validation of our systems as meeting Payment Applications Best Practices under the Visa Cardholder Information Security Program (CISP). In fact we were among the first point-of-sale providers in the industry to achieve validated status under Visa CISP.

• Radiant Hospitality is one of the first hospitality POS vendors to have our products validated against Visa’s Payment Application Best Practices (PABP) (Spring 2005).
• Each Radiant Hospitality product line has at least one version that has been validated against Visa’s PABP standards, and has been made available to clients for installation or upgrade.
• Radiant Hospitality has developed and implemented internal policies and controls to ensure that, in the event our staff must access sensitive data, the data is safeguarded while in our hands.
• Radiant Hospitality develops new software and makes modifications to existing software, using the principles of Visa’s PABP as a guide to ensure continued protection as our solutions evolve.
• Each Radiant Hospitality product line supports contactless payment to prevent payment cards from leaving the consumer’s hand.

Currently, the following Radiant applications for the Hospitality Division have been validated as meeting PABP guidelines under the Visa USA CISP program:

In addition to CISP compliance, Radiant is also committed to helping restaurant operators secure cardholder information through:

• Contactless payment to prevent payment cards from leaving the consumer’s hand
• Pay-at-table devices for Aloha POS to allow cardholders total visibility of their card
• Self-swipe kiosks for ticketing and QSR food ordering
• Training and education at all Radiant events

We strongly recommend that each customer work closely with their Radiant account team to develop a migration strategy to the appropriate PABP validated release. The risks of not moving to a certified release include potential exposure of personal credit card numbers to outside entities and potential fines from Visa, as well as other potential liabilities. For clients without a support and maintenance contract, or who have non-validated versions installed, we strongly recommend that you also move to one of the validated versions of software.
