Who is it for?
Companies that have e-commerce sites that accept credit card information.

What is it?
PCI DSS (The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards) is a set of mandatory security standards designed to protect cardholder data. Virtually any company that accepts credit card payments has to meet them – they are no longer a best practice, they are a requirement.

The standards include:

• Building and Maintaining a Secure Network
• Protecting Cardholder data
• Maintaining a Vulnerability Program
• Implementing Strong Access Control Measures
• Regularly Monitor and Test Networks
• Maintaining an Information Security Policy

When do new mandatory standards come in to effect?
These standards came in to affect on 30th June 2008 and should now be adhered to.

How does it affect me?

If your site is not compliant then you run the risk of being fined, coupled with a damaged reputation and you may even be barred from accepting credit card payments in the future.
