PCI DSS Compliance Essentials

Ensuring alignment with PCI DSS requirements protects sensitive data and strengthens overall cybersecurity. Below is the Key PCI DSS Requirements.

  • Req 2: Do Not Use Default Settings
  • Req 6.5: Protect Against Known Vulnerabilities
  • Req 8: Identify and Authenticate Users
  • Req 10: Track and Monitor Access
  • Req 11: Test Security Systems

Req 2: Do Not Use Default Settings

Ensure that all system passwords, settings, and configurations are securely customized and hardened. Default settings are an open door for attackers.

A proper configuration prevents unauthorized access.
