PCI DSS Compliance Made Simple by Pondurance

Hundreds of millions of people worldwide pay for goods and services with credit or debit cards every day. Any organization working with cardholder data (CHD) must implement security policies, technology, and processes to ensure its systems are protected from breach and theft of CHD. Because of the critical nature of this data and the potential impact it can have on the lives of so many, the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) was established to regulate protection standards for merchants, financial institutions, point-of-sale vendors, and technology developers that create and operate the global infrastructure for processing payments. Compliance with PCI DSS is mandatory for these businesses and costly for those who violate the standards (even if they do so unknowingly).

As part of Pondurance’s cyber risk and regulatory compliance assessment services, we offer a focused review of your IT systems environment to identify areas of risk and maturity as they relate to PCI DSS compliance. At the conclusion of the assessment, Pondurance either conducts a Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) or delivers a Report on Compliance (ROC) accompanied by an Attestation of Compliance (AoC). If your organization is out of compliance, we offer a tailored, prioritized approach to helping you get compliant quickly.

Benefits

The Pondurance PCI DSS Assessment is conducted by our team of security experts, partnering directly with you to guide you through the process. A team of Pondurance experts embeds with your multidisciplinary teams and analyzes your current PCI DSS compliance posture, documenting our results in the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) SAQ or ROC template. This outlines a set of desired outcomes for proper handling of CHD with categorized references to how they can be achieved.
