Pulse Secure aids PCI compliance with granular cipher enhancement
June 2016 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
Pulse Secure has announced an update to its Pulse Connect Secure product that helps customers meet the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) mandated transition from SSL and TLS 1.0 to a secure version of TLS currently v1.1 or higher through a flexible cipher selection feature.
After the discovery of the Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption (POODLE) vulnerability and Heartbleed exploits; PCI downgraded the SSL protocol stating that it can no longer be used as a security control after 30 June 2016. Instead, organizations needing to stay compliant must switch ciphers to the newer TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 standards.
Pulse Connect Secure enables secure access from any device to enterprise apps and services in the data center or cloud.
