The PCI (Payment Card Industry) certification was created to enhance financial data security by incorporating broad adoption of the PCI Security Standards. The organization was created by major credit card companies such as American Express, Discover, JCB, Mastercard, and Visa.
All entities that accept credit or debit card payment, collect, process, or store credit card transaction information, regardless of their transaction volume, are required to meet the PCI standard.
Failure to comply with the PCI security standard may result in substantial fines or permanent expulsion from card acceptance programs. Many banks already require all merchants, regardless of transaction volume, to produce a Certification of PCI Compliance.
The PCI Data Security Standards are network security and business practice guidelines developed by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover Card. They were developed to establish a 'minimum security standard' with regards to the protection of cardholders' account and transaction information.
You need to pass quarterly remote vulnerability scans conducted by a Visa and MasterCard "Qualified Independent Scan Vendor." Scans are required for all Internet connection points whether they are office networks or home/office connections (dial-up, DSL, cable, or wireless) or permanent Internet servers such as your website or email server.
You also need to complete a security self-assessment questionnaire. The self-assessment questionnaire asks specific questions about your internal security practices, both on your website and in your office.
You can visit the PCI Security Standards Council website for detailed information about compliance requirements.
