PCI Compliance FAQs

Don't Let a PCI Data Breach Put You Out of Business

Why should I bother making my business PCI compliant?

There are a number of reasons to ensure your business meets PCI compliance standards.


Data loss is expensive.  

An IBM study suggests that a record breach can cost your company an average of $158 per record breached and the total cost to a company suffering a record breach averages $4 million.


Lack of compliance can result in fines and legal actions

Banks and credit card companies may impose fines or bring civil suits against businesses which fail to comply with the terms of their merchant/bank agreement.  

f you do not certify your company you may not be allowed to use the credit cards to take payments.  


A cardholder information security breach can involve you in expensive and potentially damaging litigation. 

PCI compliance can help protect your business from data breach.

 

What is PCI Compliance? Is that the same as PCI DSS Compliance?


PCI stands for Payment Card Industry - the folks who control the major payment cards like Visa MasterCard, Discover Card, and American Express.  


These providers have joined together to develop a PCI Data Security Standard or DSS.  They have published PCI DSS requirements for PCI DSS certification.


Are SSL Certificates the same as PCI Compliance?

SSL certificates are a great start, but if you are collecting or storing any sensitive credit card data, you will need more protection in place.

How Does PCI Compliance Protect Customers' Data?

PCI Compliant Businesses Protect Customers

 By complying with the legal requirements of the PCI Data Security Standard, personal data of your business customers is better protected. 


Here a some of the key features of PCI Compliance:

  • data security - the customer payment card information is properly secured and encrypted.
  • limited data storage - the type of card data that can be stored is restricted, and the duration of data storage is limited to a certain amount of time, thus reducing the risk of data breach damage. 
  • access controls - strict measures are put in place in regards to who can access sensitive data. 
  • network security - regular security testing, firewalls, and secure networks are just some of the elements periodically evaluated
  • vulnerability management - newly discovered security vulnerabilities are regularly updated and patched
  • regular auditing  - ongoing compliance is enforced through regular audits and security assessments. 
  • incident response - compliant businesses have incident response plans to put in action in the event of a security breach. 
  • employee training - the staff of PCI compliant businesses is prepared and educated on security best practices


PCI DSS is in place to enforce better protection of customer data against financial information theft and fraud. Find out more about how you can minimize the chances of becoming a data breach target.
