CAMPBELL, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/11/13 -- Rainmaker Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: RMKR), a recognized technology leader in the rapidly emerging Commerce-as-a-Service sector, announced today that it has received certification of PCI-DSS -- Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard -- for its GrowCommerce CaaS Platform.

The PCI DSS is a multifaceted security standard that includes requirements for security management, policies, procedures, network architecture, software design, and other critical protective measures. This standard is intended to help organizations proactively protect customer account data.

To become PCI DSS-validated, Rainmaker underwent a comprehensive third-party examination of its policies, procedures, and technical systems by a Quality Security Assessor to ensure that it met best practices and security controls needed to keep credit card data safe and secure. Trustwave, the leading provider of PCI DSS compliance management solutions, performed the validation. Rainmaker's attainment of Level 1 Service Provider compliance for PCI DSS demonstrates that the company adheres to the industry's strictest set of security standards in order to combat credit card theft and fraud.

"Protecting client and consumer credit card and payment data is a critical facet of our business," said Michael Dosik, Rainmaker's Senior Director of Technical Operations. "Achieving the highest-level of security standards is extremely important to our enterprise customers, who manage high volumes of renewals from their SMB customers on a streaming basis. Our GrowCommerce platform provides the most stringent security available for payment processing, and we are gratified to have it illustrated by earning PCI Level 1 Compliance."

"Rainmaker's Level 1 PCI DSS certification demonstrates their ongoing dedication and commitment to safeguarding the sensitive data of all of their clients and customers," said Doug Klotnia, Executive Vice President of Compliance and Risk at Trustwave. "They are taking the proper steps to adhere to security best practices for their compliance, and for the security of cardholder data on a continuous basis."
