PCI-DSS Requirement 8 calls for a two-factor authentication for remote access. Therefore, connecting to the FSC remotely using the CAP Port does not provide a two-factor process. This allows OPW's Phoenix Software, third-party software (such as DM2's autopoll) and remote users to access the system for the purpose of polling transactions using only a single authentication process. To implement the installation of the FSC3000 in a PCI-compliant manner you must always make remote dial-in connections using the FSC3000's Internal Modem.
Note: If the site is NOT processing Bankcards (or any others cards governed by the rules of PCI compliance) and is only using the FSC3000's Proprietary Card File for authorization, then use of a modem on the CAP Port is allowed.
