As a company that processes payments using confidential customer account data, EBSCO must comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). PCI DSS was developed to facilitate broad adoption of consistent data security measures on a global basis to help organizations proactively protect customer account data.

EBSCO recently implemented Tripwire Enterprise configuration audit and control solution to ensure continued PCI DSS compliance with increased security and change control management on all systems. Tripwire monitors systems for unauthorized changes, alerts to exceptions to compliance and security policies, and provides valuable reports that executives and auditors require for documenting IT change history and demonstrating compliance.
