PCI Compliance

Major credit card issuers created PCI (Payment Card Industry) compliance standards to protect personal information and ensure security when transactions are processed using a payment card. All members of the payment card industry (financial institutions, credit card companies and merchants) must comply with these standards if they want to accept credit cards. Failure to meet compliance standards can result in fines from credit card companies and banks and even the loss of the ability to process credit cards.

Standards that must be met in order for a retailer to be deemed compliant include:
Maintaining a secure network
Protecting Cardholder Data
Maintaining a Vulnerability Management Program
Implementing Strong Access Control Measures
Regularly Monitor and Test Networks
Maintaining an Information Security Policy

The first step in PCI compliance is to meet the above standards.
