What is PCI DSS?
PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is a set of security standards designed to protect cardholder data from unauthorised access, misuse, and exposure. Compliance is mandatory for any organisation that accepts, processes, stores, transmits, or handles credit card data.
Meeting PCI DSS requirements reduces the risk of fraud, identity theft, and data breaches, protecting both your customers' financial information and your organisation's reputation.
