CyberSource(R) Introduces Payment Integration Cassette for SAP(R) Solutions
Provides Seamless Electronic Payment Processing and Fraud Detection
Functionality for Businesses Operating on SAP Solutions
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 8 --
CyberSource Corporation (Nasdaq: CYBS), a leading provider of risk management
and electronic payment solutions for enterprise businesses, today announced
immediate availability of a CyberSource payment cassette for SAP(R) solutions.
The payment cassette integrates with SAP R/3(R) to give businesses selling via
multiple channels the benefits of a CRM/ERP system seamlessly integrated with
highly secure, scalable electronic payment and proven fraud-detection
functionality for streamlined order acceptance and improved customer
satisfaction.
Many R/3 customers often use a separate, manual process to accept credit
and procurement cards. This requires daily human review and reconciliation,
which can result in business administration efficiency costs, order
fulfillment delays and customer dissatisfaction. By providing real-time
credit card authorization and fraud-detection functionality accessible from a
single application interface, the new CyberSource payment cassette for SAP
solutions can help save businesses time and money, while improving the
customer experience.
"We are pleased to add this new cassette to our wide range of payment
integration offerings," said Dave Daetz, Senior Vice President of Corporate
Business Development, Marketing and Product Management for CyberSource. "This
integration demonstrates CyberSource`s continued commitment to align itself
with world-class organizations and provide their customers with a simple means
to take advantage of our high-quality, robust, and scalable electronic payment
solutions for improved order acceptance processes."
The CyberSource payment cassette for SAP solutions, designed for easy
implementation, provides access to CyberSource`s hosted electronic payment
transaction and fraud detection services, as well as comprehensive transaction
reporting.
The CyberSource Payment Solution
The CyberSource payment solution, available as an outsourced service or
in-house managed software, operates behind-the-scenes to authorize and settle
electronic payments through built-in connections with third-party processors
and merchant banks. Developed for large enterprises with demanding needs,
CyberSource payment solutions support web, call center, IVR and POS sales
environments. CyberSource payment solutions integrate smoothly with major
commerce platforms, ERP and CRM systems, and are designed for compatibility
and interoperability with new standards and products. Both the CyberSource
software and outsourced payment service options provide real-time, multiple
currency support and integrate seamlessly with CyberSource`s risk management
solutions, giving businesses a powerful way to protect against losses from
fraud.
Additionally, CyberSource is the only payment transaction provider in the
industry to utilize a highly secure Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)-based
cryptographic security model to authenticate and secure 100 percent of the
transactions processed on behalf of its more than 3,000 customers worldwide.
Unlike other security solutions, such as basic username and password
authentication, which typically consists of only eight characters and can be
compromised by "hackers," the CyberSource system utilizes a private key, known
only by the merchant, with over 1,024 bits of data used to authenticate each
transaction, making it virtually impossible to penetrate.
