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) in conjunction with the card schemes. 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 or transmit payment card data.

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

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

What are my benefits?

A PCI DSS certification represents high quality and adherence to world best practices. A PCI DSS certificate also opens the way to new markets, as PCI DSS is an international standard.

Data Security

PCI DSS helps you achieve a minimum level of security to guarantee the safety of customer data in relation to external threats.

Consistent and Secure Operations

Conversely, not having certification could preclude you from being able to do business with those entities that mandate certification.

New Partnerships

The ability to work with any payment systems and easily find and create new partnerships.

Avoiding Fines

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

This depends on whether you are even eligible for an SAQ or not. If you are eligible for an SAQ, you would need to determine which SAQ is right for you, based on the nature of your credit card processing. For the sake of this question, it is pertinent to note that an SAQ D contains all of the requirements that are requested for an onsite assessment and consequently the same effort is required to comply. The only difference is that an onsite assessment require an audit which involves detailed testing by your QSA. The plus side, is that for the same effort, an onsite assessment results in a certification whereas an SAQ does not.
