3C solutions are PCI compliant! PCI? Everybody talks about it but do you know what is beyond those 3 letters
The
Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard is a new, single set of data security requirements, developed by Visa and MasterCard that will apply across the payment industry worldwide, and replaces the old AIS Standards and Best Practices.
As part of Visa and MasterCard’s alignment of security standards, merchants and service providers will be able to assess the status of their security by using a single validation process for all payment organisations. This will result in
lower costs, reduced complexity and wider acceptance of standard security requirements for the industry. The alignment also allows merchants and service providers to select one vendor and implement a single process to comply with all payment card data security programmes.
