The encryption compliance myth: Why dual-custody encryption beats tokenization for PCI scope reduction

If you handle card payments and want to reduce your PCI scope, you’ve probably considered payment tokenization to handle sensitive card data.

Payment tokenization providers (often called token vaults) are your best option for offloading PCI burden, right? Not quite.

Due to how they are architected, token vaults fail to support the scale, speed, and flexibility that modern payments demand. Their model introduces performance bottlenecks, a centralized point of failure, and severely limits reliability.

Join Shane Curran (Evervault CEO) for a technical session on how dual-custody encryption delivers PCI compliance with optimal performance and minimal scope.

You'll learn:

• Why traditional tokenization infrastructure struggles to scale
• What PCI DSS v4 says about encryption and third-party key management
• How dual-custody encryption eliminates vault dependency and improves performance
• How to retain long-term control while keeping your PCI scope to a minimum
