Will you pass PCI Compliance in 2024? Will you achieve a successful RoC (Report on Compliance) or be able to confidently complete an SAQ?

The PCI framework is one of the most complex cyber security frameworks that exists. If your organization is held to PCI compliance, it can certainly be tedious, stressful, and not to mention resource heavy.

Understanding these can be challenging. If you don’t deal with PCI every single day, the nearly 300 controls can seem very hard to understand. With decades of PCI experience, our team can help your organization identify the PCI gaps, develop a plan, and lead you in the right direction of getting PCI compliant. Our team helps take the pain out of compliance so that you can focus on what is important to you, growing your business.

Our readiness assessments include:

• Advisement on the latest PCI 4.0 requirements based on the PCI Data Security Standard
• A deep dive into the 12 main controls and nearly 300 sub-controls
• A clear picture of the control gaps that need attention for compliance

What do we do during the assessment?

• Give you use of an PCI tool that will help keep things organized and easy to understand
• Help with PCI Scoping
• Help verify PCI compliance information provided by the client (gathering evidence, policies, etc)
• Evaluate compensating controls and custom implementations to ensure they are compliant
• Use our experience and judgement to determine if all PCI requirements are being met
• Produce final report

Compliance never stops.  It is always changing to ensure that card data is being protected.  Because of this, it is important that your organization is always staying on top of PCI compliance.
