CERTIFICATION
PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is a set of security standards for organizations that handle credit and debit card information. It's designed to protect cardholder data and reduce fraud.
Yes, if you accept, process, store, or transmit credit or debit card information, you are required to comply with PCI DSS.
Compliance levels are based on the volume of transactions you process annually. Higher volumes require more rigorous validation processes.
This involves understanding the requirements that apply to your business, implementing security controls, and validating your compliance through an SAQ or ROC, followed by submitting an AOC to your acquiring bank.
