Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, or PCI-DSS for short, is a standard developed to protect credit card information. If you handle your customers' credit card information as part of your business it will affect you in some way.
Every business handling credit cards, such as an E-commerce business, has a duty to protect the credit card information of it’s customers. PCI-DSS defines the different levels of compliance required depending on your interaction with cardholder information, and we have worked with businesses to attain all levels of compliance.
As a merchant, you may have found your awareness of PCI-DSS has increased as merchant banks’ programmes gain pace with the aim to push the knowledge, rules and best-practice down from the card issuers such as Visa and Mastercard. It can seem a daunting prospect when faced with a large questionnaire with terms you barely understand. We are here to help.
