About PCI DSS
PCI DSS includes a set of data security requirements for payment cards that was initially created by five major global credit card companies, namely Visa, American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International and MasterCard, and they are currently maintained by the PCI SSC (Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council). To obtain PCI DSS certification, a company must undergo a comprehensive and rigorous review from an independent assessment organization authorized by the PCI SSC.
