Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standards (DSS) compliance: (Get started NOW)
The Payment Card Industry has adopted extensive Data Security Standards to protect credit card data including card holder information and to ensure the security and accuracy of financial transactions. If an organization fails to comply there could be a significant impact to the organization including fines, higher fees and even exclusion from the payment network.
Even companies that outsource the processing of credit cards to a third-party must comply with the PCI DSS. In these cases the requirements of the DSS may be easier to meet, but outsourcing is not a way to avoid compliance.

Do you have an upcoming PCI DSS assessment?
It's important to prepare for a PCI DSS audit to avoid potentially costly fees and complications that could result from a negative audit report. We help you by carefully assessing your security procedures, their implementation and compliance with PCI DSS. Often this reduces your audit costs by avoiding follow-up reviews and audits. Prior to the audit, we evaluate and identify potential security exposures. We then work with you to address those exposures in a cost effective way in advance. In addition, we also work with you to improve the efficiency of the audit process by determining which information assets are required as part of an audit and work with you to document and appropriately separate those assets from your general computing infrastructure.
