KUALA LUMPUR: Maxis Bhd (Maxis) and Transaction Network Services (TNS) have entered into a collaboration to offer best in class secure managed network for payments and financial institutions.

Some of the key features of this solution are security for all businesses today, maximised uptime, simplicity, 24/7 support, and a global reach. The solution is designed with multiple security features and TNS’ network is Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) certified.
