Credit card
security is a concern in every industry, but even more so in
hospitality. An article in the New York Times* stated that "38
percent of the credit card hacking cases last year involved the hotel
industry," more than any other industry in the country.
Visual Matrix
is highly conscious of the need for heightened security, and is
currently working on a new Credit Card Tokenization project.
With credit
card tokenization, your property no longer stores a physical credit
card number. Instead, you store only a token number assigned by your
processor. The processor stores the card, eliminating a security risk
for your property and enhacing PCI security.
To learn more
about how your property can be more secure, visit the PCI
Security Council's website to
learn more about what PCI Compliancy and credit card security means for
your business.

What's your backup plan?
A solid backup plan is important for any business.
If your property is not performing secondary backups, you are in danger
of losing financial information, future reservations, and even past
revenue and tax information.
During your night audit process, Visual Matrix automatically performs a
local backup before and after the audit. If you have a secondary backup
location set, Visual Matrix will also perform an automatic secondary
backup during the audit.
In addition to the automatic backups that Visual Matrix performs, you
should have an offsite backup plan. In the event of a catastrophic
disaster, an offsite backup plan can save your important business
records.
