PCI Compliance FAQ

What is PCI Compliance?

PCI compliance measures how well a company secures their cardholder data.  To be PCI compliant, a company must meet extensive requirements laid out by PCI DSS (the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). This standard, created by representatives from top card brands like Visa and MasterCard, was created to secure the people, processes, and technology that interact with card information. PCI compliance requirements are split up into 12 catagories each addressing a different ascpect of data security.

Do I need to be PCI Compliant?

If a business handles any payment card information, they fall under the scope of PCI DSS and must be PCI compliant. While PCI DSS is not a legal requirement, large card brands can enact fines of up to $500,000 and even revoke the ability to accept payments using their brands. PCI Compliance is an incredibly lengthy, and often expensive process. To make compliance easier, many businesses use PCI-compliant tools, like TokenEx, to access, utilize, and store cardholder data on their behalf. When cardholder data is stored securely outside of internal systems with tokenization, companies reduce their PCI compliance burden dramatically.

How do I achieve PCI Compliance?

The best first step is to limit your organization’s interactions with cardholder data. Consider using payment processing tools to process data externally. For data that needs to be regularly accessed and used, consider tokenization tools to retain the data’s utility while completely removing the data from your PCI Scope. After you’ve limited the people, processes, and systems that encounter cardholder data, those systems are ready to be audited for compliance.
