Payment Card Industry (PCI) Compliance
Readiness Roadmap

Payment card industry – data security standard (PCI – DSS) is an information security standard developed by the PCI Security Standards Council. The standard contains strict, evolving requirements for businesses handling sensitive debit, and credit card data. The objective of the standard is to enhance payment card data security and is relevant for all merchants and organizations that handle payments using debit, and credit cards.

The PCI – DSS contains strict, evolving requirements for businesses handling sensitive credit card data. Failure to comply with PCI-DSS can result in costly fines or data breach, increased security audits, which can negatively impact organizations’ reputation and branding. Being PCI – DSS compliant is important for ensuring the confidentiality of card holder data as well as protecting the payment network from vulnerabilities that could result in loss of millions of dollars and business reputation.
