The PCI Security Standards Council's goal in forming their standards was to create a unified and simple method, using the minimum security necessary to transmit, process, and store cardholder information. Payment card information is an extremely high-profile and highly targeted medium and the tactics of cybercriminals are becoming more and more sophisticated and advanced. No organization is ever entirely secure; but with the proper defense technologies, businesses can tremendously alleviate their risk and vulnerability, and make it much more difficult for cybercriminals to breach their private networks and data.
Organizations and businesses of all types and sizes now, unfortunately, should require the incorporation of preventative security compliance into ongoing operations. Security, by definition, involves safeguarding confidential information, protecting against fraud, ensuring systems are available so that one may generate revenue, and making sure there are no errors in the stack. When completing all of these aforementioned tasks, one automatically, inherently, and sufficiently fulfills the requirements and intent of all major regulatory and industry compliance regulations.
Exceeding the regular periodic audits and network scanning required by PCI standards, by utilizing managed security, yield much more value to an organization and, in most cases, actually does not end up adding as much additional expense as one may expect.
