Who is it for?
Companies that have ecommerce sites that accept credit card information.
What is it?
PCI DSS (The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards) Compliance is a set of mandatory security standards designed to protect cardholder data. Virtually any company that accepts credit card payments has to meet them – they are no longer a best practice, they are a requirement.
The standards include:
- Building and Maintaining a Secure Network
- Protecting Cardholder data
- maintaining a Vulnerability Program
- Implementing Strong Access Control Measures
- Regularly Monitor and Test Networks
- Maintaining an Information Security Policy
When do new mandatory standards come in to effect?
Monday 30th June 2008
