pCI 1-2-3. A Simpler Way to PCI Compliance

Why PCI 1-2-3

The thought of losing or compromising a shopper’s personal information is a critical concern of retailers. It makes shoppers reluctant to buy which costs retailers business. It’s also a top issue for the credit card brands, which lose more than $1 billion a year to card fraud. The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council (an organization formed by the card brands) created the PCI Data Security Standards (DSS) to help merchants proactively protect customer account data.

Any merchant or service provider that stores, processes or transmits customer account data must comply with the PCI DSS controls and processes. If you don’t, you risk costly fines, audit costs, restrictions or worse should a breach occur.
