Why do we need PCI DSS?

1. To Protect Cardholder Data: The PCI DSS is designed to protect cardholder data from being stolen or misused by hackers, criminals, and other malicious actors. It helps ensure that all cardholder information is secure and kept confidential.

2. To Ensure Compliance: PCI DSS helps organizations comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). This is a set of requirements that organizations must follow in order to process, store, and transmit cardholder data. By following the PCI DSS, organizations can ensure that their systems and processes are secure and compliant with industry standards.

3. To Avoid Costly Data Breaches: Data breaches can be extremely costly for organizations. Not only can they lead to financial losses, but they can also damage an organization’s reputation and lead to legal action. By following the PCI DSS, organizations can reduce the risk of data breaches and protect their customers’ data.
