8 steps to PCI DSS certification
PCI DSS is a set of requirements to ensure the security of cardholder data stored, transmitted and processed in company information infrastructures.
The main objective of the PCI DSS is to secure network infrastructure and protect cardholder data. This data is sought by malevolent intruders to steal money. That is why PCI DSS is focused on card data privacy.
The PCI DSS requirements apply to merchants, banks, various service providers, retail stores, call centers, payment gateways and other businesses and organizations which process, transmit and store cardholder data.
To obtain a PCI DSS certificate, you should follow these eight steps:
Certification Form
First, fill out a Certification Form to choose and evaluate the certification procedure. This will help our experts understand your specific needs as well as estimate the certification costs.
The result of the first step is selecting a PCI DSS certification procedure, the final price, and the phases and requirements for completion.
Contract
To be certified according to PCI DSS, your company needs to sign a contract with IT Specialist.
Once the contract is signed, you should make a prepayment equal to 50% of the total amount to the bank account of IT Specialist.
Technical analysis
Our professionals and technical experts will perform a preliminary technical analysis.
Technical analysis includes many different activities. At the end, you’ll receive a detailed report. This report contains a list of nonconformities with the PCI DSS requirements. It will also provide elimination recommendations.
