TRANSACT, Las Vegas
Parlacom has signed a commercial and technological agreement with NewNet, further to the pioneering launch of STC (Secure Transaction Cloud), a virtualized system for transmission and processing of payment transactions. Through Parlacom’s secure M2M network, SIM cards from any Carrier can now communicate securely from POS (payment terminal) to Acquirers in the financial system.
One of the biggest challenges in the market is the ability to offer new security mechanisms coupled with the agility of systems operating in the cloud and, consequently, eliminating high infrastructure costs. The Central Bank of Brazil has just published Resolution No. 4.658, which deals with cybersecurity policy and the requirements for contracting data processing and storage services and cloud computing services.
In a secure network and in compliance with PCI rules, payment companies now have a complete and approved platform.
According to Clóvis Lacerda, CEO of Parlacom, “Payment and financing companies can quickly expand service offerings with more agility, security and lower costs, as they will no longer need costly infrastructure, dramatically reducing ROI.”
This has been a growing demand in an increasingly competitive market, where start-ups are causing strong disruption of the most traditional models in the industry.
“The integration of the M2M platform of Parlacom with our STC application offers the complete solution. It connects the end points of a financial transaction, from the equipment operating a SIM card protected through secure connections until the final transaction authorization with the financial services systems,” said Devarajan Puthupparambil, Head of Business, NewNet’s Secure Transactions. “We are excited to partner with Parlacom to offer this secure, scalable solution.
TRANSACT 2018 in Las Vegas has shown the industry’s irreversible path in pursuit of safe and secure mechanisms, where “tokenization” and blockchain are at the forefront of expert discussions. Virtualizing this ecosystem of payment systems will respond to the demands of an increasingly complex market, where deployment speed, lower costs and faster ROI will make the competitive difference and NewNet’s STC offers a leading example of this, enabling Parlacom to deploy services with advanced solution capabilities.
