Cybersecurity Sense

Dive into the latest in the PCI landscape with our October update. We kick off with a news segment spotlighting the new SAQ SPOC (Software PIN Entry on COTS) which includes portions of PCI DSS Requirements 3, 8, 9, and 12. Transitioning to Requirement 7, we discuss restricting access to system components and cardholder data based on business necessity, delving into sub-requirements 7.1 to 7.3, and discussing the principles of 'need to know' and 'least privileges.' Our QSA Q&A segment addresses the applicability of Requirement 7 to customer/cardholder accounts, clarifying the scope and the specific entities impacted by this requirement. Join us for a comprehensive exploration of this month's PCI developments, an in-depth look at Requirement 7, and expert insights in our QSA dialogue, paving your way towards enhanced compliance and security.
