The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is mandated by the major payment brands (MasterCard, Visa, Amex, JCB and Discover) for organisations that handle payment card data. The PCI DSS defines the minimum security controls needed to protect cardholder data. If you process, store, or transmit payment card data, you are required to comply with PCI DSS. Merchants that accept payment via debit or credit cards and service providers that process payment card data are required to comply with the standard.
