PCI DSS Assessment and Attestation
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a globally recognized security framework designed to protect cardholder data and prevent credit card fraud. PCI DSS compliance is mandatory for any organization that stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data—including merchants, payment processors, financial institutions, and service providers.
A PCI DSS Assessment involves a detailed evaluation of your IT systems, networks, and data security practices against the 12 PCI requirements. Depending on your merchant level and transaction volume, you may be required to undergo a formal assessment by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) and submit an Attestation of Compliance (AOC) to your acquiring bank or payment brand.
