PCI 3.0, Part 3: Validating Your Cardholder Data Environment Summer is almost here, and that means many of you probably have made significant headway laying the groundwork for your 2015 PCI audit. However, one important aspect of 3.0 preparations that doesn't always get the attention it should is documentation....
PCI 3.0, Part 2: Defining Your Cardholder Data Environment As spring gets under way, most e-commerce businesses already are preparing for their 2015 PCI audit. If you're one of them, you know that plenty of changes are afoot when it comes to meeting 3.0 compliance requirements.
PCI 3.0, Part 1: Breathe, Relax, Get Compliant New compliance guidelines went into effect earlier this year. While e-commerce organizations have until their 2015 audit to transition, the new controls are demanding enough operational and technical changes that smart businesses already have started preparing.
Aimed at improving the security of payment card data and reducing fraud, PCI DSS 3.0 standard, which took effect on Jan. 1, introduces changes that extend across all 12 requirements. It no doubt will mean some shakeups for many organizations when it comes to their day-to-day culture and operations. That's not a bad thing, because transitioning to meet the new requirements will help e-businesses build a stronger, safer, lower-risk environment for their customers.
