What is PCI DSS?

PCI DSS is a Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard developed by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC). It defines a specific list of requirements for ensuring the security of payment card data, affecting both the organizational and technical side of companies.

Does this concern me?

The PCI DSS standard defines the requirements for enterprises whose information systems

– store, process and / or transmit payment card data.

– can in any way affect the securoty of this confidential payment information.

All organizations involved in the processing of payment cards MUST comply with the regulations contained in this document.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is what people are usually asking us. If you want to discuss one of these topics with us or you have other questions please contact us for your free consultation!

This usually depends on the Acquirer. Service providers are usually required to undergo a level 1 onsite assessment. The validation method for a merchant is usually dependant on the volume of transactions processed. Any entity processing 6million transactions and over need to carry out an onsite assessment as an SAQ would not be adequate
