The Importance of PCI Compliance
You may have heard stories about security breaches at companies, that compromised customer information and cost a fortune in losses, fines, and future business. It’s a major problem for businesses. Businesses large or small, have a responsibility to protect their customers’ private data including their payment details. To ensure this, in the mid-2000s credit card companies came together to establish guidelines known as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS). Both IT service providers and their customers should be PCI compliant to assure customers.
