Is there any reason that Windows 95/98 terminals in an Aloha system would not be Cisp compliant??

CISP compliancy?

Aloha CISP compliancy is part of the software not the operating system.

There are two parts to CISP (PCI-DSS), PABP and PCI. PABP is an application level certification. As Bo stated (albeit slightly modified), PABP is specific to the software and not the operating system. PCI on the other hand, deals with merchant and data center compliancy and here the operating system can make a difference. Win 95/98 can be made PCI compliant but it does add a little more complexity, particularly when dealing with the "applying most recent security patches" section. This is an area where "compensating controls" may have to be used - like a secure gateway and/or third party intrusion detection software.

ok, I think I have it. Is there anywhere I can go to get simplified step-by-step instructions to get an Aloha system fully compliant?
