PCI DSS
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), overseen by the PCI Security Standards Council™, has emerged as the driving, worldwide security standard for companies that process credit card information. A company processing, storing, or transmitting credit card numbers must comply with PCI DSS requirements or risk losing the ability to process credit card payments.
The PCI Security Vendor Alliance (SVA) is an independent group of vendors who see tremendous value in the standards managed by the PCI Security Standards Council. Compliance Spectrum, as a member of the PCI SVA, is committed to education and the delivery of solutions including Spectra for PCI that streamline the lifecycle of PCI DSS compliance process through automation.
