10 Common Myths of PCI DSS
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) secures cardholder data that is stored, processed or transmitted by merchants and processors. PCI DSS specifies 12 requirements entailing many security technologies and business processes, and reflects most of the usual best practices for securing sensitive information.
The resulting scope is comprehensive and may seem daunting - especially for smaller merchants who have no existing security processes or IT professionals who help guide them through what is required and what is not.
To complicate matters, some vendors who sell security products or services market their products in a broader context than just the PCI DSS requirements. As a result, retailers who are new to security may harbour myths about the PCI DSS.
The PCI Security Standards Council presents ten common myths about PCI DSS to help your business optimize protection of cardholder data and ensure compliance with the standard.
