Introduction

PCI DSS: Protect Credit Card Data

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, PCI DSS, applies to any company that processes, stores, or transmits credit card information, anywhere in the world. It is not specific to any industry, and it is not only for publicly traded companies.

The PCI DSS is designed to protect credit card data, which in turn protects personal information and identities. Cisco is a member of the PCI Security Standards Council Board of Advisors and works to advance the PCI DSS so that it is more manageable for customers to achieve and maintain compliance while securing credit card transactions and information.

Cisco solutions for the PCI DSS include technology solutions, service offerings, and standard participation, including:

  • PCI-validated architectures for retail and healthcare: Architectures built and audited by a PCI Qualified Security Assessor.
  • PCI Advanced Services (PDF - 304 KB) Service offerings to help you get, and stay, PCI DSS compliant.
  • PCI Board of Advisor member and PCI DSS Special Interest Groups: Participation in the PCI DSS Wireless Guideline, and the PCI DSS Virtualization working group.
