Framework

PCI DSS

Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard compliance.

What Is PCI DSS?

PCI DSS is a global security standard for organizations that store, process or transmit cardholder data, enforced contractually through payment processors.

Why It Matters

Card data is a top attacker target because it's directly monetizable. Non-compliance discovered after a breach typically results in liability for fraud losses and fines.

Who Needs This

E-commerce, fintech, retail and any business processing card payments.

Cost of Non-Compliance

Fines of $5,000–$100,000 per month from card networks, or loss of ability to process card payments.

Key Benefits

Required to legally accept card payments
Reduces risk of costly card-data breaches
Demonstrates trustworthiness to payment partners
Reveals unnecessary cardholder data sprawl to eliminate
Typical Timeline4–6 weeks for simpler merchants; 3–6 months for full Level 1 assessments.
