TEXAS -- The Dresser Wayne fuel dispenser secure payment solution received Version 2.0 security standard certifications. 

The certifications are for the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Encrypting PIN Pad Security Requirements and the Interac Association Chip PED Technical Specifications and Testing Requirements. 

The security requirements are designed to secure personal identification number transactions globally. Similarly, the Interac Association requirements assure the security of debit card transactions being processed on the Interac national payment network. 

Dresser Wayne is the first to receive Interac Association’s Version 2.0 certification under its newly-defined category for unattended terminals, the company noted in a statement. 

"As industry is strengthening regulations to protect consumers from increasingly sophisticated methods of identify theft and fraud, fuel retailers are finding it a challenge to keep pace with these changes," says Tim Weston, product manager of payment technologies for Dresser Wayne. 

Dresser Wayne contracted the services of EWA-Canada to perform the evaluation of the new secure payment solution. They are one of only a few evaluation laboratories approved to evaluate products against both the PCI and Interac standards.
