PCI DSS 3.0 Compliance Using TierPoint’s Cloud & Managed Security Services In a recent poll conducted by American Consumer Credit Counseling (ACCC), 64% of consumers do not trust retailers with their credit card information. From 2012 to 2013, data breaches have gone up by 30% and the number continues to grow. In 2014 alone, we have seen 644 breaches and 78 million records exposed. This is another increase of 26% across multiple industries. To combat this, the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards PCI DSS v3.0 were released this year, with a compliance deadline of January 1, 2015. These requirements comprise “a minimum set of requirements for protecting cardholder data, and may be enhanced by additional controls and practices to further mitigate risks, as well as local, regional and sector laws and regulations.” But, doing only the status quo to meet these minimum requirements may not be enough to avoid a breach of your networks and your customer’s data. The chart below shows the 3.0 requirements and how you can enhance your security posture today by utilizing TierPoint’s compliance expertise and services. Required controls How TierPoint can help 1.
