PCI Compliance Cost Analysis: A Justified Expense

Tags:
security standards

Overview The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) was created by the credit card companies and is intended to protect cardholder data wherever it resides, ensuring that merchants and service providers maintain the highest degree of information security for their customers. While the standard is meant to have a positive impact on merchants, consumers and the retail industry, many retailers are still questioning its effectiveness and necessity in light of the high-cost to comply. A recent poll of 201 information technology (IT) and PCI compliance professionals reinforces this point.
