Don’t Tackle PCI Compliance without the Right Tools

If you’re a small business owner, you probably think that meeting your PCI compliance requirements and filing your IRS tax return have a lot in common. Both are overwhelmingly tedious, confusing, and complicated. There’s so much jargon that you need to spend a great deal of time just figuring it out what is required.

If you are a typical tax filer, you have three options—file the return by hand, pay someone else to prepare your tax return, or file the return using tax preparation software such as TurboTax. The advent of online tax preparation software has gained a lot of traction over the past few years, mainly because it substantially reduces the time taken to file your tax return.

The Art of PCI Compliance - Risk Assessment

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), is “a set of comprehensive requirements for enhancing payment account data security.”  In other words, PCI provides a set of tactics to protect the confidentiality and integrity of data.  Great place to start – but it’s only part of the picture.  Applying them appropriately requires situational awareness and knowledge of the company’s core values and strategy.

This series explores Sun Tzu’s approach to assessing an army’s readiness for battle as applied to compliance requirements in support of business strategies.

Assess the Risk

“Regulations are not designed to handle the kinds of threats, the kinds of vulnerabilities, and the kinds of problems that organizations are facing today,” said Edward Schwartz, CSO of...
