The Princeton Payments Solution (PPS) group was created to address the specific needs of the enterprise resource planning (ERP) community with respect to complex payment environments. The company’s latest card payment interface, CardConnect, builds on more than a decade of experience connecting the ERP community with the banking community. In 2004, PPS was the first company to encrypt data within an ERP system and pass the Payment Card Industry (PCI) audit standards with its CardSecure solution. Later, in response to customer requests to remove SAP from PCI scope, PPS developed CardSecure’s token solution. Information on PPS products and services can be found at www.prinpay.com.

F5 and PPS have partnered to help companies protect credit card numbers and prevent data theft that can lead to significant financial losses. The joint solution enables customers to capture card data or personal information and encrypt it before it reaches the organization’s web servers and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. This in turn eliminates all downstream audit scopes—such as Payment Card Industry (PCI) and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act compliance—from the organization’s various ERP systems.
