What is PCI DSS?
PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is a mandatory global security standard for any organization that accepts, processes, stores or transmits credit card data. Its purpose is to protect cardholder data against fraud and security breaches.
What is a QSA and how is it different from a consultant?
A QSA (Qualified Security Assessor) is an entity certified by the PCI Council to perform official auditing and issue the Report on Compliance (RoC). A consultant (such as Delta Protect) does not perform the final audit; our role is to prepare your company, close gaps and help you Pass that audit, acting as your expert ally.
What is a PCI DSS consultancy?
A consultancy for PCI DSS is a specialized support service, in which expert and certified advisors help companies that process cardholder data to comply with and certify this standard for the start of their operations, or to maintain constant compliance with it.
What is a SAQ (Self-Assessment Questionnaire)?
The SAQ is a Self-Assessment Questionnaire used by merchants and service providers with the lowest volume of transactions to validate their compliance with PCI DSS. There are different types of SAQ depending on how you process payments. Our consultancy helps you to correctly identify and complete the appropriate SAQ.
