Re: CC numbers stored on planes

Hi Robin, here in the states many if not all of the airlines are required
to be PCI compliant. That being said those devices should be considered in
scope by the company that is performing their assessment. If they are truly
PCI compliant, all of the credit card numbers stored on those devices
should be encrypted. I hope that helps.

I've been on quite a few planes where the duty free and the bar allow
people to pay by credit card. I'd guess the data is stored and
downloaded to be processed at the end of each flight, if so, that is a
great target for card thieves. I wonder how many are actually properly
protected?
