What is PSI-DSS Compliance?

PSI-DSS stands for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. It is a set of data security standards developed by the Payment Security Standards Council (PCI-SSC) for the payment industry. PCI DSS provides a validated set of requirements for any business that handles credit card information to protect the integrity and security of cardholder data. The standard has 12 specific requirements that merchants, service providers, and vendors must implement to protect credit card transactions and data breaches.

What is PSI-DSS Pentesting?

PCI-DSS penetration testing helps businesses evaluate the security of their systems and networks. It involves simulating real-world attacks to identify vulnerabilities in the company’s application that could be exploited by hackers to gain unauthorized access to sensitive cardholder data. The PCI-DSS standard has made it mandatory for businesses to carry out regular penetration tests, typically annually or after any significant system changes to ensure compliance with the PCI-DSS requirements.

    What is PCI-DSS Penetration Testing?

    PCI-DSS Penetration Testing is a security assessment designed to identify vulnerabilities in payment systems.

    Companies should perform pentesting at least annually or after any significant changes to the payment processing setting to maintain compliance.

    Testing focuses on areas like network security, application security, cardholder data setting, and access control measures.

    If vulnerabilities are identified, they are listed in a pentesting report and shared with the company so that they can address it and remediate it as soon as possible.

    Why is PCI-DSS Penetration Testing important?

    PCI-DSS Penetration Testing helps protect sensitive cardholder data by identifying and addressing security gaps and protecting against potential breaches.

    Any company that stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data must undergo PCI-DSS Penetration Testing to ensure compliance.

    It typically takes a few days to a couple of weeks to complete PCI-DSS pentesting.

    Yes, penetration testing can be conducted remotely, but certain parts of pentesting may require on-site testing depending on the application and network type.
