FAQs

1. What is the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) and where can I get it?
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) is a set of security standards. It was designed to ensure that businesses that accept, process, store or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. The PCI Security Standards Council website has the most recent PCI DSS materials.
2. How many PCI DSS requirements are there?
The PCI DSS has 12 requirements. The PCI SSC’s standards are both operational and technological, with the primary goal of protecting cardholder data at all times.
3. What happens if you don’t follow the PCI DSS?
You risk losing your merchant account if you aren’t PCI compliant, which means you won’t be allowed to take credit card payments at all.
4. Under the PCI DSS, whatever account data must be protected?
The PCI DSS security controls and processes are critical for safeguarding all payment card account data, including the PAN (primary account number) displayed on the front of a payment card.
5. According to the PCI DSS, what should never be stored?
Never keep the card-validation code or value on your computer. Never keep your personal identification number (PIN) or PIN Block on your computer. When PAN is displayed, be sure you mask it.
6. Is PCI DSS still applicable if I just accept credit cards over the phone?
Of course. PCI compliance is required for all businesses that store, handle, or transfer payment cardholder data.
7. Does the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) apply to bank accounts?
Branch identification numbers, bank account numbers, sort codes, routing numbers, and other bank account data are not considered payment card data, thus the PCI DSS does not apply to this information.
8. Is PCI applicable to debit card transactions?
Any debit, credit, or pre-paid card branded with one of the five-card association/brand logos that participate in the PCI SSC – American Express, Discover, JCB, MasterCard, and Visa International – are PCI applicable.
9. What does it mean to have ‘cardholder data’?

Cardholder data is defined by the PCI Security Standards Council (SSC) as the whole Primary Account Number (PAN) or the full PAN plus any of the following elements:

  • Name of the cardholder
  • Expiration date
  • Service code
10. How do you stay in compliance with the PCI DSS?

PCI compliance may be maintained in five simple steps:

  • Learn about the most recent requirements
  • Using a risk-based approach to security
  • Protect stored card data
  • Regularly Test Security Systems and Processes
  • Keep a watchful eye on policy compliance.
