Industry defined requirements
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a set of minimum requirements established by the PCI Security Standard Council that any business that processes payment cards (e.g. credit or debit cards) must meet in order to secure the data to protect the cardholder.
Security standards to protect cardholder data
The aim of the standard is to enforce a set of carefully checked security guidelines. These policies are designed to prevent the compromise of customers' financial data held by merchants or service providers and obtained as part of payment card transactions.
