Achieve and Maintain Your PCI Compliance Today
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards
PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is a global security standard designed to ensure all organizations that store, process, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. It consists of 12 key requirements addressing network security, protection of cardholder data, vulnerability management, access controls, monitoring, and maintaining security policies. Compliance with PCI DSS helps businesses protect customer payment data, reduce fraud risks, and build trust in their payment processes. Organizations often work with Qualified Security Assessors (QSAs) to validate their adherence to these standards and achieve certification. PGAR IT Services is actively partnered with EMH Group in Melbourne and Botech to deliver QSA certification services in APAC region.
The primary final deliverable is the Report on Compliance (RoC) or the relevant Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ), which documents the organization's PCI DSS compliance status. Typical timelines for a full PCI DSS assessment engagement span 3 to 4 weeks for the onsite and post-onsite assessment activities, with additional time required beforehand for scoping, contract sign-off, and preparation.
