ScanAlert and ShopSite Teams Up for Ecommerce Service

"One Click Compliance(TM)," a new integrated ecommerce service from ShopSite and ScanAlert (www.scanalert.com), will enable tens of thousands of online merchants using ShopSite's shopping cart application to become automatically compliant with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard at no additional cost.

Jointly developed by ShopSite, a leading provider of ecommerce solutions to small and mid-sized (SME) online merchants, and ScanAlert, the world's largest web site security certification service, One Click Compliance ensures that merchant transactions -- from web site and shopping cart to the payment gateway -- are certified to meet the PCI security standard.

LexiConn Internet Services, Inc., one of the first web hosts to deploy the system, estimates that over 700 of its ecommerce merchants can qualify, while another ShopSite vendor, YourHost.com, estimates that several hundred of its online merchants qualify.

"Web hosts can confidently recommend ShopSite's ecommerce solution to their merchants because ScanAlert will certify the merchant's business practices, web sites, web hosting infrastructure, and the ShopSite shopping cart to meet the PCI standard at no cost."

YourHost.com is a privately held company founded in 1998, with head offices located in Huntington Beach, California.
