PCI DSS
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a widely accepted framework consisting of a set of policies and procedures intended to optimize the security of credit, debit and cash card transactions and protect cardholders against misuse of their personal information. PCI DSS is only applicable to the credit card industry, and the companies that process, store, or transmit credit card data. Zeron provides a total of 43 controls classified under 8 categories for the PCI DSS framework. The page for this module is made up of the following sections:

(This page only provides an overview. To know more in-depth about each section, please click here.)
