ACI and comforte
ACI Worldwide and comforte have partnered to enhance payments security by integrating data-centric protection into ACI’s Retail Payments Solution without disrupting existing systems. Their combined use of vaultless tokenization and encryption enables organizations to meet compliance requirements while keeping sensitive data usable for analytics, fraud detection, and AI.
ACI Worldwide and comforte joined forces to help banks, fintechs, and payment processors secure sensitive payments data without limiting its business value. ACI’s Retail Payments solution is enhanced and integrated with comforte’s data-centric security technology, ensuring seamless interoperability across payment workflows and enabling deployment without disruption. By combining ACI’s payment processing with comforte’s vaultless tokenization and format-preserving encryption, organizations can protect sensitive data to meet PCI DSS and other regulatory requirements while keeping it fully usable for analytics, fraud detection, and AI. This removes the traditional tradeoff between security and innovation without requiring changes to existing systems or payment flows.
Organizations face a growing conflict between increasing regulatory pressure driven by standards such as PCI DSS and GDPR and expanding attack surfaces, while at the same time, demand for real-time analytics, fraud detection, and AI-driven insights continues to rise. However, sensitive data is often locked down or masked, limiting its usability. The result is a data paradox: protecting data reduces its value, while using it more broadly increases risk.
Clients deploying comforte’s technology with their ACI solutions benefit from:
- PCI DSS compliance by design: Render sensitive data unreadable and reduce audit scope with built-in protection
- Secure data, fully usable: Preserve data structure for analytics, fraud detection, and AI without exposing risk
- Accelerated innovation: Enable real-time analytics and AI using high-quality, production-grade data
- Seamless, future-proof integration: Pre-integrated with ACI Retail Payments solution for fast deployment and long-term compatibility
