Cloud-based solution enhances data protection and facilitates payment
management across all Roche Bros. supermarket locations
DULUTH, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 21, 2015--
NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR), the global leader in consumer transaction
technologies, announced today that high-end supermarket chain Roche
Bros. has implemented NCR’s Connected Payments to help with its payments
security. Massachusetts-based Roche Bros. is using the cloud-based
payment solution to manage all of its daily operations related to
payments across its network of neighborhood supermarkets.
Faced with the opportunity to proactively lead in the mitigation of
payment card theft and fraud risks, Roche Bros. turned to NCR to help
provide a more flexible and secure payment solution. NCR Connected
Payments provides data and transmission protection, from PIN pad to
payment processor, helping to reduce Roche Bros.’ in-store payment data
footprint and exposure to potential payment data theft and fraud. The
flexible cloud solution also makes it easy for Roche Bros. to comply
with changing payments regulations and implement changes and
configurations across all its stores, POS systems and PIN pad devices
from a single central location.
“We were looking for an electronic payment solution that allowed us to
insulate sensitive card data from our retail enterprise but at the same
time provide a level of flexibility to implement changes quickly and
easily,” said John Lauderbach, CIO of Roche Bros. “NCR Connected
Payments is very straightforward to maintain as all the on-going work is
done by NCR, freeing me and my team to run our business and focus on
what we are good at. Because it is a cloud solution, it has an
attractive subscription based model, with no hidden surprises.”
NCR Connected Payments is Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard
(PCI-DSS) 3.0 and Europay, Mastercard and Visa (EMV) certified, enabling
retailers to comply with the latest industry regulations. It also
employs point-to-point encryption (P2PE) and tokenization, and provides
advanced security monitoring and vulnerability management to grant
retailers constant visibility into the health of their complete payment
system. As a cloud-based solution, it allows retailers to easily comply
with evolving payment regulations and standards on an ongoing basis,
with NCR managing the process of ongoing updates. It also offers the
flexibility for retailers to configure the implementation to their
specific requirements, providing access to the latest innovative payment
methods without having to apply complex and costly changes to POS and
payment infrastructure.
“NCR Connected Payments helps retailers manage all of their payments
needs safely and securely, while at the same time taking the
responsibility for ongoing system updates off of their to-do lists,”
said Jimmy Frangis, Vice President and General Manager,
Payments-Security & Cloud Services, NCR Retail. “This helps provide them
with access to the latest payment options to improve shopper experience
while significantly reducing their liability and exposure to fraud,
leaving them free to concentrate on running their business. For Roche
Bros. that means removing the headache of managing their payment systems
so they can focus on providing high quality food and great customer
service.”
