PCI - DSS

Overview

You wouldn’t hand out your debit or credit card details to just anyone. So when you pay for something in person or online, you want to know that your card information is secure. In 2004, the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, or PCI DSS, was created to cut payment fraud and protect card users. The standard is a set of requirements for companies to follow, so they can process, store, and transmit card information securely.
