PCI DSS stands for the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, a document developed in 2005 by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council to ensure the security of card payments. The Council is represented by the world’s leading card networks: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, JCB, and Discover. Since 2012, PCI DSS has been mandatory for all businesses dealing with bank cards.
The standard is a complex system of requirements aimed at protecting the cardholders’ data when making payments. Certification for compliance with these requirements indicates that the company cares about the security of its customers’ personal information.
