brant_point....I have posted on this breach several times, Heartland Payment Sys, (HPY) & follow their situation as they continue to have 78% Inst holders & good analyst ratings. They are beginning to pay millions in CA settlements & to do business as usual. They are "fixing" their security problem, according to HPY & using encryption. I dont understand what they are talking about which is par for my course.

An excerpt from an article I recently posted that explains in detail their new security. What is TRSM, who has such a system for sale?

“These cards were read by our newly developed pilot tamper-resistant security module (TRSM) terminal. The data was encrypted as the electronic digits left the magnetic stripe and entered the TRSM hardware device. The data was then successfully transmitted to and through our processing platform for authorization and settlement."
