You must secure cardholder data to meet Payment Card Industry rules!
Smaller merchants are now the target for data thieves. It’s your job to protect cardholder data.
If cardholder data is stolen – and it’s your fault – you could incur fines, penalties, even termination of the right to accept payment cards!
WHY SECURE?
Customers worry about theft of their data. You should worry about business fallout.
More than 340 million computer records containing sensitive personal information have been involved in security breaches in the U.S. since 2005. Now criminals are shifting sights to smaller merchants because many have lax security for cardholder data. More than 80% of attacks target smaller merchants. If you are at fault for a security breach, business fallout can be severe:
- Fines and penalties
- Termination of ability to accept payment cards
- Lost confidence, so customers go to other merchants
- Lost sales
- Cost of reissuing new payment cards
- Legal costs, settlements and judgments
- Fraud losses
- Higher subsequent costs of compliance
- Going out of business
HOW TO SECURE?
Let the PCI Data Security Standard guide your program for security.
The PCI DSS has become a model framework for security. It has best practices representing years of experience from security experts around the world. The standard works for the biggest corporations. And it will work for you!
PCI Compliance: The ongoing 3-step process
- Assess – identifying cardholder data, taking an inventory of your IT assets and business processes for payment card processing, and analyzing them for vulnerabilities.
- Remediate – fixing vulnerabilities and not storing cardholder data unless you need it.
- Report – compiling and submitting required reports to the acquiring bank and card brands you do business with.
