PCI complianceis a security standard that applies to anyone who accepts, processes, transmits or stores credit/debit card information, including (but not limited to) retail, mail/telephone order, and e-Commerce.

Obviously it’s smart and responsible to assure your customer’s personal information is protected from cyber-crime and ID theft, however, new standards and laws have been created to assure all business owners both big and small are taking proper precautions to assure that this information isn’t compromised.

PCI compliance includes specific requirements for:

• protection of cardholder data
• implementation of a vulnerability management program
• regular security testing
• access control measures
• and the maintaining of an information security policy

New laws mandate PCI compliance

Failure to meet these standards will result in fines up to $10,000 for first time violators. Visa Fraud Control fines up to $500,000 per incident for any merchant or service provider that is compromised and not compliant at the time of the incident. Fines like these will easily put a business under for good.
