Euna Solutions®, a leading provider of purpose-built, cloud-based solutions for the public sector, today announced Euna Payments powered by CityBaseTM, a solution for governments and utilities with multiple payment options for their constituents and customers, has been awarded a Level 2 Authorization in the Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP). The certification indicates a cloud service provider has met stringent security requirements for handling sensitive state agency data in Texas. The TX-RAMP certification adds to Euna Payments’ existing Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type II and Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) certifications.

“Euna Payments’ TX-RAMP Level 2 certification is a significant milestone, marking our payment solution as a secure and reliable service for transactions within Texas,” said Chris Kubic, Chief Information Security Officer at Euna Solutions. “This accomplishment ensures compliance with mandatory state requirements and reinforces Euna’s leadership in secure payment solutions, setting the stage for further expansion in the Texas market and beyond.”

Euna Payments is a powerful and convenient payment solution with intuitive customer service tools. It provides governments and utilities multiple payment options for their constituents and customers. Organizations can implement one, multiple, or all types of payment options, including self-serve kiosks, web payments, mobile payments, and POS for faster revenue collection.

TX-RAMP Level 2 Authorization is noteworthy for several reasons, including:

  • Enhanced Data Security and Privacy: TX-RAMP Level 2 Authorization sets specific security and privacy standards that service providers must meet to handle Texas state data. Level 2 requires a more stringent assessment of the cloud service provider’s capabilities to protect sensitive information, ensuring that data is managed securely and complies with state regulations.

  • Compliance with State Regulations: Achieving TX-RAMP Level 2 Authorization demonstrates that a service provider complies with all applicable Texas state laws and regulations regarding data security and privacy.

  • Trust and Credibility: Certification establishes a level of trust and credibility for service providers with potential state agency clients. It signals to these agencies that the service provider has undergone rigorous evaluation against the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) security controls and can protect state data against cyber threats.

  • Continuous Improvement: Obtaining and maintaining TX-RAMP Level 2 Authorization encourages continuous improvement in security practices. Providers must regularly assess and update their security measures to comply with the evolving standards and threats, enhancing their overall security posture.
