BullsEye Telecom Launches Mako Networks PCI DSS-Enablement Solution
Leading Multi-Location Hosted PBX Provider Partners with Level 1 PCI DSS-Certified Leader to Deliver Network and Data Security from a Single Source
National provider of integrated telecommunications solutions, BullsEye, today launches its new Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)-enablement solution in partnership with Mako Networks, a world leader in PCI DSS compliance and network security management.
Through this partnership BullsEye will continue to offer enhanced network management with the addition of a PCI compliance solution to its base and new customers. BullsEye is pleased to bring our base and new customers the benefits of:
- Peace of mind from enhanced network security and the ability to protect company and customer proprietary information
- PCI enablement through a pre-configured compliance template to payment networks
- Better control through simplified network management
- Increased information and data protection from a cloud-based security model
This partnership with Mako is a natural progression for BullsEye. The company (BullsEye) has been offering simplified network management as part of its current portfolio and this decision to partner with Mako now bolsters its ability to empower its clients to become and remain PCI DSS-compliant.According to Bill Oberlin, BullsEye Telecom, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), “We chose to partner with Mako because it is an innovator like us. Businesses look to BullsEye to bring them the best and add value to their current telecom and network security environment, and we’ve done that with Mako’s simple, secure cloud- managed PCI networks.”“This partnership with the world’s first network management company to be PCI DSS-certified shows our level of commitment to bring customers nothing but the best,” Oberlin concluded.Mako’s unique security architecture ensures that information is transferred through the cloud from site to site rather than through its own network. In contrast to “network in the middle” solution providers, the Mako System offers better security and higher reliability for IP network connectivity to route payment data.
According to Simon Gamble, Mako Networks, President for North America, “BullsEye is an excellent partner for Mako as we continue to expand in the U.S. Their focus on providing value to their client base and their national footprint aligns well with our business goal of bringing a superior PCI offering to businesses across the country.”
“With the inclusion of this PCI-enablement solution, BullsEye has given customers virtually limitless potential to get the best possible telecom experience from a single source,” said Tim Basa, BullsEye vice president of Sales.
“BullsEye is not for every business. We focused on providing extreme value to our multi-location customers. Our value goes way beyond analog phone service. Our clients want fully managed, tailored solutions for their businesses from a single accountable partner,” concluded Basa.
