objectives." The control objectives and their requirements are: Build and Maintain a Secure Network Requirement 1: Install and maintain a firewall configuration to protect cardholder data Requirement 2: Do not use vendor-supplied defaults for system passwords and other security parameters Protect Cardholder Data Requirement 3: Protect stored cardholder data Requirement 4: Encrypt transmission of cardholder data across open, public networks Maintain a Vulnerability Management Program Requirement 5: Use and regularly update anti-virus software Requirement 6: Develop and maintain secure systems and applications Implement Strong Access Control Measures Requirement 7: Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know Requirement 8: Assign a unique ID to each person with computer access Requirement 9: Restrict physical access to cardholder data Regularly Monitor and Test Networks Requirement 10: Track and monitor all access to network resources and cardholder data Requirement 11: Regularly test security systems and processes Maintain an Information Security Policy Requirement 12: Maintain a policy that addresses information security ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PCI Training - 1 Complying with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard - ITP311  Strategies for Protecting and Auditing Payment Card Information Applications and Achieving PCI DSS Compliance - from the MIS Training Institute The Payment Credit Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is designed to protect credit card information wherever and whenever it is processed, stored, or transmitted, and to ensure that members, merchants, and service providers maintain the highest security standards. Meeting the 12 requirements of this evolving standard, however, can be a daunting challenge, and non-compliance can result in costly fines and loss of valuable retail customers. In this timely, three-day seminar, you will gain solid familiarity with the current PCI DSS and any recent significant changes, and get proven tips on how best to overcome compliance challenges. You will examine and interpret each of the 12 compliance requirements and cover practical solutions, potential issues, and common pitfalls. You will identify, organize, and address the full spectrum of physical, administrative, and technical controls necessary to meet or exceed PCI DSS requirements using a practical, commonsense method that emphasizes a structured implementation approach to day-to-day business operations. You will explore how to leverage your experience with other key industry information security standards and regulations to minimize costly “re-inventions of the wheel.” You will focus on the use of practical, cost-effective safeguards and auditing/self assessment tools and techniques, and learn how you can leverage safeguards that are already on-hand with essential add-ons that can often be acquired from open source technology. www.misti.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PCI Training -2 Training from the PCI Security Standards Council The PCI Security Standards Council is an open global forum, launched in 2006, that is responsible for the development, management, education, and awareness of the PCI Security Standards, including: the Data Security Standard (DSS), Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS), and Pin-Entry Device (PED) Requirements. All of the five founding members have agreed to incorporate the PCI DSS as the technical requirements of each of their data security compliance programs. Each founding member also recognizes the QSAs and ASVs certified by the PCI Security Standards Council as being qualified to validate compliance to the PCI DSS. A Limited Liability Corporation (LLC) chartered in Delaware, USA, the PCI Security Standards Council was founded by American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International, MasterCard Worldwide, and Visa Inc. All five payment brands share equally in the council's governance, have equal input to the PCI Security Standards Council and share responsibility for carrying out the work of the organization. Other industry stakeholders are encouraged to join the group and review proposed additions or modifications to the standards. The PCI Security Standards Council is an open global forum for the ongoing development, enhancement, storage, dissemination and implementation of security standards for account data protection. The Council provides a variety of resources to the marketplace in order to further security awareness within the payment card industry. These resources include:
