PCI DSS 4.0 solution overview
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) was developed to encourage and enhance cardholder data security and facilitate the broad adoption of consistent data security measures globally. PCI DSS provides a baseline of technical and operational requirements designed to protect account data.
PCI DSS applies to all entities involved in payment card processing, including merchants, processors, acquirers, issuers, and service providers. PCI DSS also applies to all other entities that store, process, or transmit cardholder data (CHD) and/or sensitive authentication data (SAD).
The domains of PCI DSS compliance and reporting are:
-
Build and Maintain a Secure Network and Systems: Establish and maintain secure systems and networks to protect cardholder data
-
Protect Cardholder Data: Protect cardholder data during storage, transmission, and processing
-
Maintain a Vulnerability Management Program: Regularly scan for and address vulnerabilities in networks and systems
-
Implement Strong Access Control Measures: Control access to cardholder data by using unique IDs, strong passwords, and two-factor authentication
-
Regularly Monitor and Test Networks: Monitor networks and systems for unauthorized access and regularly test security controls
-
Maintain an Information Security Policy: Develop and maintain an information security policy that addresses the protection of cardholder data and educate all employees on it
