PCI-DSS payment card data security standard

Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard more commonly known as PCI-DSS is a worldwide standard for the protection of cardholder identity and transactions.

Warrior Networks PCI consulting services range from initial risk assessment, hardware/software implementation through to compliance certification.

The average cost of a serious security incident can be in the order of £120,000 and to address these issues the PCI data security standard was developed by Visa and Mastercard to restore consumer confidence in card payments. PCI standard aims to give cardholders the assurance that card details are safe using the internet, POS or mail order.

Merchants that are non-compliant can face the stark prospect of substantial fines and possibility of being barred from accepting cards altogether.

Clearly defined deliverables are part of the consultancy service that Warrior Networks offers merchants in becoming PCI-DSS compliant. These include

• Risk Assessment for the identification of non compliant areas

• Independent assessments by qualified security assessors to ensure confidence in the integrity of the audit.

• Technology recommendations that go beyond the basic requirements required for compliance.
