The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, also known as
PCI DSS is a set of comprehensive requirements for enhancing payment account data security. It was developed by the PCI Security
Standards Council, including American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International,
MasterCard Worldwide and Visa International, to help facilitate the broad adoption of consistent
data security measures on a global basis.
PCI DSS is a set of 12 high-level requirements designed to secure and protect customer payment data. If you store, process
or transmit any cardholder data electronically or manually, then your business must comply with PCI-DSS.
