Required for cardholder data handling

All merchants and service providers that process, transmit or store cardholder data must comply with the PCI DSS. It helps prevent financial fraud by ensuring cardholder information is protected from theft or misuse.

Avoid enforcement action and reputational damage

Each payment brand can fine acquiring banks for PCI DSS compliance violations. In turn, acquiring banks can withdraw the ability to accept card payments from non-compliant merchants.

Improve your wider security posture

The PCI DSS provides specific, actionable guidance on protecting payment card data. This guidance can be applied to organisations of any size or type that use any method of processing or storing data.

PCI DSS

Merchants and service providers can show they meet PCI DSS requirements by auditing their CDE (cardholder data environment) against the Standard’s applicable requirements.

The type of audit you must undergo, and your exact PCI compliance requirements will vary depending on your merchant or service provider level. This level is based on the number of card transactions processed per year.

Generally, the criteria applied will be based on those set by Visa and Mastercard, the predominant payment card brands.

GRC Solutions can support your PCI DSS compliance project at all stages, from scoping and gap analysis to penetration testing and help completing an RoC (Report on Compliance).

The types of audit are:

An RoC (Report on Compliance) completed by a PCI QSA organisation such as IT Governance or by an ISA (Internal Security Assessor).
An SAQ (self-assessment questionnaire) signed by an officer of the organisation. There are nine types of SAQ designed to meet different types of merchant and service provider's requirements. These are listed below.
An external vulnerability scan conducted by an ASV (Approved Scanning Vendor).
