Need to meet payment card security standards? We can help.

If your organisation stores, processes, or transmits payment card data, PCI DSS compliance is a requirement from the card brands. We assess your card data environment, define your compliance scope, identify gaps, and work with your team to close them — including reducing scope where possible.

What's involved

If your organisation stores, processes, or transmits payment card data, PCI DSS compliance is a requirement from the card brands — not optional. The scope and complexity depends on how you handle card data, your transaction volume, and your SAQ type.

We assess your current card data environment, determine your compliance scope, identify gaps against the applicable PCI DSS requirements, and work with your team and payment providers to close them. For many organisations, the biggest win is reducing scope by changing how card data flows through your systems.

PCI DSS v4.0 introduced significant changes including more flexibility but also more rigour around customised approaches, targeted risk analysis, and continuous compliance. We ensure your implementation reflects the current standard.

Deliverables

  • Card data flow mapping and scope determination
  • PCI DSS gap assessment against applicable requirements
  • Scope reduction recommendations
  • Remediation plan and implementation support
  • SAQ completion assistance or QSA coordination
  • Ongoing compliance monitoring guidance

Business benefits

  • Meet card brand requirements and avoid non-compliance penalties
  • Reduce compliance scope and cost through better card data handling
  • Protect customer payment data and reduce breach risk
  • Current compliance aligned with PCI DSS v4.0 requirements
