Jscrambler: A New Era in Client-Side Security
In November 2023, DataSolutions, a Climb Company, announced details of our a new partnership with Jscrambler, a trailblazer in client-side security solutions. This collaboration aligns with our commitment to providing innovative solutions to our partners navigating the complex landscape of cybersecurity, data integrity, and regulatory compliance.
Tom Dell, EMEA Partnerships Director at Jscrambler, shared our enthusiasm about this partnership, stating: “It's great to join forces with DataSolutions, and we're looking forward to introducing Jscrambler's portfolio to their UK and Irish reseller communities.” Let’s dive into what this means for you, our channel partners, with insights directly from Tom Dell:
Tell us more about Jscrambler, Tom:
“Jscrambler has long been committed to enhancing the visibility organisations have over the scripts and third-party services that operate on their digital platforms. Such clarity is crucial in understanding and mitigating risk, as well as in ensuring the integrity and security of sensitive data.
Our primary mission at Jscrambler is to enhance an organisation's overall visibility into the third-party scripts and services running on their websites or apps. In doing so, these organisations gain both a greater understanding of their risk profile and a greater awareness of any behaviour that may threaten data integrity and security.
As pioneers in the field of client-side security, Jscrambler has been safeguarding both source and third-party code for over a decade with its multi-layered defence platform. We recognise that third-party code can often be a blind spot for many businesses, as it’s difficult to manage. But this blind spot poses significant security risks. Take, for example, how third-party assets are exploited to launch web-skimming attacks.”
What’s the unique opportunity for our partners considering Jscrambler’s technology?
“Web-skimming attacks pose a significant threat to the e-commerce sector and are precisely the kind of risk that upcoming PCI DSS v4.0 regulations aim to mitigate. Jscrambler is already working with organisations to ensure they comply with the requirements of PCI DSS v4.0. Our solutions offer unparalleled visibility and control over JavaScript running on websites, which is key to managing risk effectively.
As we look toward the enforcement of PCI DSS v4.0 on April 1, 2025, it may seem as though there is plenty of time to prepare. However, the reality of the cyber threat landscape dictates a different approach—one marked by urgency and proactivity. Cybercriminals are already stepping up the sophistication of their web-skimming attacks, and they will undoubtedly intensify their efforts as the PCI DSS v4.0 implementation date draws closer.
The new requirements are designed specifically to protect payment pages. Requirement 6.4.3 focuses on reducing the attack surface by managing all JavaScript on payment pages, while requirement 11.6.1 centres on the detection and alerting of any tampering or unauthorised changes to these pages.
Jscrambler's technology addresses these requirements head-on, facilitating real-time visibility, monitoring, and management of scripts that could compromise data integrity. This level of responsiveness is something many conventional security tools struggle to match, as they often lack the flexibility and control needed to comply with the nuanced demands of PCI DSS v4.
The upcoming version of PCI DSS is not just a future compliance milestone but an imminent imperative for businesses. The transition period is a critical window for organisations to reassess and reinforce their cybersecurity measures. Jscrambler's message to all partners and your clients is clear: the time to act is now, and we’re here to support you!”
The DataSolutions and Climb Advantage
At DataSolutions and Climb Channel Solutions, we see our partnership with Jscrambler as an essential step in empowering our partners with robust client-side security capabilities. This area of security is often overlooked, yet its importance cannot be overstated—especially with the forthcoming PCI DSS v4.0 compliance requirements. We believe that Jscrambler's expertise can offer our partners a strategic advantage, reinforcing compliance and strengthening data protections across the board.
Our commitment is to continue enhancing our portfolio with innovative solutions. We’d be happy to facilitate a discussion between you and Jscrambler to ensure your customers can stay ahead of cyber threats and regulatory changes.
