AirTran Airways (Transportation)

Business Challenge
Supporting a user base of more than 10,000 people across the country, AirTran Airways’ data security team needed a cost-effective solution for easing the pains of PCI compliance over a widely distributed network. With such a large and dispersed work force, AirTran sought a means of achieving greater visibility into its entire network, as well as a level of accountability to ensure that its security and compliance policies were actually being followed. In addition to being cost-effective to match AirTran’s business model as a low-cost carrier, the solution had to be scalable to enable the company to take credit cards from wherever possible - at any gate, ticket counter, kiosk, etc. It also had to be easy for AirTran’s small security staff to implement, manage and utilize on adaily basis.
