What Is Changing?
The new version 4.0 of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) will require compliance by March 31, 2025. While the update was designed to improve security for payment card transactions, safeguard sensitive information, maintain trust in electronic payments, and reduce the chance of yet another data breach, many organizations that handle credit card transactions may not be prepared or even aware of the changing requirements.
Your organization still has time to verify if you’re following payment card industry data security standards and address any needed changes. These latest standards include new requirements mandated to be in place by the PCI Security Standards Council and require companies handling, processing or facilitating transactions to be proactive ensuring they adhere to the new standards.
How To Prepare
This may involve companies completing an assessment of any areas in their business processes not aligned with the new standards, fixing them before the deadline and maintaining up-to-date documentation such as:
