An Introduction to PCI DSS Compliance Projects

Summary:

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a common set of technical requirements and testing methodologies. PCI DSS has been defined to help organisations reducing the risk of fraud and IT vulnerabilities. The main objective is to effectively protect customers data and maintain customers trust into the payment system. Therefore PCI DSS has become a mandatory standard to all companies, areas and systems, that process, store or transmit credit card data. As companies usually have little experience with large security projects it need months to set up and start the certification process in an organisation. Achieving PCI compliance represents a significant accomplishment, but while you might be compliant today does not mean you will remain compliant. Ensuring compliance with PCI DSS means to prepare a PCI Compliance Strategy. PCI compliance, therefore, is more like a journey than a destination. This lecture will give you an understanding how you can set up and run a compliance project and initiate security processes with the goal to help your organisation staying PCI compliant.
