NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 3, 2025 / - The OLB Group, Inc. ("OLB" or the "Company"), a diversified FinTech company, today announced that its SecurePay payment gateway has successfully achieved Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Version 4.0 certification, the latest and most comprehensive security standard established by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC).

A New Era in Payment Security

PCI DSS 4.0 represents the most significant update to payment security standards in over a decade, introducing enhanced requirements designed to address evolving cyber threats and strengthen the protection of cardholder data across the global payments ecosystem. SecurePay's achievement of this certification demonstrates OLB's commitment to maintaining the highest levels of security for its merchant partners and their customers.

"Achieving PCI DSS 4.0 certification for SecurePay is a significant milestone that reinforces our position as a trusted leader in payment processing," said Ronny Yakov, Chief Executive Officer of The OLB Group. "This certification validates our ongoing investment in security infrastructure and our dedication to providing merchants with a payment gateway that meets the most stringent industry standards."

Key Enhancements Under PCI DSS 4.0

The updated certification encompasses critical security enhancements mandated by the major card brands, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and JCB International. Notable requirements addressed in PCI DSS 4.0 include:

Enhanced Authentication Controls - Implementation of strengthened multi-factor authentication (MFA) requirements for all access to the cardholder data environment, reflecting updated mandates from Visa and Mastercard for payment service providers.

Advanced Encryption Standards - Deployment of upgraded cryptographic protocols to protect cardholder data both in transit and at rest, meeting heightened requirements established by all major card networks.

Continuous Security Monitoring - Integration of automated security monitoring and threat detection capabilities, aligning with American Express and Discover's enhanced requirements for real-time vulnerability management.

Targeted Risk Analysis - Implementation of customized security controls based on entity-specific risk assessments, a new flexible approach under PCI DSS 4.0 that allows organizations to tailor security measures to their unique operating environment.

Expanded Scope for E-Commerce - Enhanced protections for payment page scripts and third-party integrations, addressing emerging threats in card-not-present transactions as prioritized by all participating card brands.

Card Brand Compliance

SecurePay's PCI DSS 4.0 certification ensures full compliance with the security programs of all major card networks:

• Visa Global Registry of Service Providers

• Mastercard Site Data Protection (SDP) Program

• American Express Data Security Operating Policy (DSOP)

• Discover Information Security Compliance (DISC) Program

• JCB Data Security Program

"The transition to PCI DSS 4.0 represents a fundamental shift in how the payment industry approaches security, Our successful certification demonstrates that SecurePay is positioned to meet not only today's security challenges but also the evolving requirements that the card brands will continue to implement through 2025 and beyond."

Strategic Implications

The PCI DSS 4.0 certification strengthens SecurePay's competitive positioning in the payment gateway market and provides OLB's merchant partners with assurance that their transactions are processed through a platform meeting the highest available security standards. This achievement supports the Company's strategic initiatives to expand its payment processing capabilities and attract enterprise-level merchants requiring best-in-class security compliance.

About PCI DSS 4.0

PCI DSS 4.0, released by the PCI Security Standards Council in March 2022, became mandatory for all entities processing, storing, or transmitting cardholder data as of March 31, 2024, with additional future-dated requirements taking effect through March 31, 2025. The standard introduces 64 new requirements focused on emerging threats, enhanced authentication, improved encryption, and greater flexibility in how organizations achieve security objectives.

These forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current beliefs, assumptions, and expectations regarding future events, which in turn are based on information currently available to the Company. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding the proposed spinoff of DMint described herein and are characterized by future or conditional words such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "continue" or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information.

For example, federal money laundering statutes and Bank Secrecy Act regulations discourage financial institutions from working with operators of certain industries - particularly industries with heightened cash reporting obligations and restrictions - as a result of which, banks may refuse to process certain payments and/or require onerous reporting obligations by payment processors to avoid compliance risk.
