CAPITAL Card Services maintains PCI certification

June 8, 2008

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — CAPITAL Card Services Inc., provider of portfolio-management and card-outsourcing solutions, has completed its Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard audit for the third consecutive year.

The PCI DSS is a multifaceted security standard that includes requirements for security management, policies, procedures, network architecture, software design and other critical protective measures. The PCI DSS is used by Visa Inc. and MasterCard Worldwide.

In 2005, CAPITAL was one of the first credit-card-services companies to pass PCI requirements, and it continues to complete the PCI audit each year.

"We strive to make sure our clients feel secure in our ability to safeguard customer-account data," said Jeffrey Aegerter, CAPITAL's president and chief executive. "Completing the PCI audit for the third year in a row is just one more way to protect our clients and their customers."
