PCI
Compliance Overview:
Visa,
MasterCard, JBC, American Express
and Discover Card have adopted the
Payment Card Industry (PCI) standard
to protect cardholder data by defining
specific security controls. The potential
effect to society as identity theft
continues to escalate is clear and
these security requirements were written
to help prevent access to sensitive
information by unauthorized parties
and eliminate data security breaches.
They also define requirements for
deleting this data when no longer
needed. All merchants and service
providers that store, process, or
transmit cardholder data must comply
with the current PCI Data Security
Standards.
CISP
compliance is required of all merchants
and service providers that store,
process, or transmit Visa cardholder
data. The program applies to all payment
channels, including retail (brick-and-mortar),
mail/telephone order, and e-commerce.
To achieve compliance with CISP, merchants
and service providers must adhere
to the Payment Card Industry (PCI)
Data Security Standard, which offers
a unified approach to safeguarding
sensitive data for all card brands.
This Standard is a result of a collaboration
between Visa and MasterCard and is
designed to create common industry
security requirements, incorporating
the CISP requirements. Other card
companies operating in the U.S. have
also endorsed the PCI Data Security
Standard within their respective programs.
