    Visa USA issued a warning to some banks about transaction software made by Texas-based Fujitsu Transaction Solutions Inc., saying it could incorrectly store “sensitive cardholder data” in certain configurations. Visa spokesman Jay Hopkins refused to provide additional details.

    The Fujitsu software helps retailers transfer account numbers and PIN codes entered at cash registers to the shopper’s bank for verification. The account data is supposed to be deleted as soon as it is passed on to the merchant�s bank, which then forwards the information to the shopper’s bank.
