what can a merchant do to comply with the PCI DSS.

Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) has been established by the leading international cards organizations Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Diners, Discovery, JCB. PCI SSC had been worked out as PCI DSS rules and documents to regulate and define card security principles and policies. PCI DSS is intended for all entities that store, process, or transmit cardholder data and/or sensitive authentication data or could impact the security of the cardholder data environment. This includes all entities involved in payment account processing – merchants, processors, acquirers, issuers, and other service providers. These rules set the technical and operational requirements for organizations accepting or processing payment transaction.

Please see the latest version of requirements and standards here

All merchants that store, process or transmit cardholder data and/or sensitive authentication data must be PCI DSS compliant. Some PCI DSS requirements may also apply to entities with environments that do not store, process, or transmit account data – for example, entities that outsource payment operations or management of their cardholder data environment.

Account data (card data and sensitive authentication data) elements:

	Data Elements	Storage Restrictions	Required to Render Stored Data Unreadable
Cardholder data
	Primary Account Number (PAN)	Storage is kept to a minimum	Yes Standard requires that the PAN must be rendered unreadable
	Cardholder Name	Storage is kept to a minimum	No
	Service Code	Storage is kept to a minimum	No
	Expiration Date	Storage is kept to a minimum	No
Sensitive Authentication Data Sensitive authentication data must not be stored after authorisation, (even if encrypted)
	Full Track Data Full track data from the magnetic stripe, equivalent data on the chip, or elsewhere	Cannot be stored after authorization	Yes, data stored until authorization is complete must be protected with strong cryptography
	Card verification code (CVV2/CVC2) The three or four-digit value printed on the front or back of a payment card	Cannot be stored after authorization	Yes, data stored until authorization is complete must be protected with strong cryptography
	PIN/PIN Block Personal Identification Number entered by cardholder during a transaction, and/or encrypted PIN block present within the transaction message	Cannot be stored after authorization	Yes, data stored until authorization is complete must be protected with strong cryptography

How to be sure that you are compliant with PCI DSS requirements?

We inform merchants once per year via e-mail what kind of action must be taken to comply with PCI DSS. Requirements are presented in the table below.

Merchants are categorized into 4 levels based on the annual number of card payment transactions by one card brand (i.e., MC, VISA, Amex etc.). Level 1- Level 3 merchants are required to report their compliance status and Level 4 merchants are required to report filled SAQ directly to their bank.

Merchant level	Merchants’ transaction criteria	Required actions from merchants	Frequency
Level 1	Merchants with 6 million and more annual transactions in total for Mastercard or VISA	External security audit made by Qualified Security Assessor(QSA)	once per year
Level 1		Network Scan conducted by an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) or Qualified Security Assessor (QSA)	once per quarter
Level 2	Merchants with 1 to 6 million annual transactions in total by Mastercard or VISA	Qualified Security Assessor(QSA) or Internal Security Assessor (ISA) Merchants completing SAQ A, A-EP or D are required to engage a QSA or ISA for annual compliance validation. Merchants completing SAQ B, B-IP, C-VT, C or P2PE may now self-assess without the use of a QSA or ISA for compliance validation.	once per year
Level 2		Network Scan conducted by an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) or Qualified Security Assessor (QSA)	once per quarter
Level 3	Online merchants with 20 000 to 1 million annual transactions in total by Mastercard or VISA	Completing annual self-assessment (SAQ) form required	once per year
Level 3		Network Scan conducted by an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) or Qualified Security Assessor (QSA)	once per quarter
Level 4	All other merchants	Annual self-assessment (SAQ) at merchant discretion	Recommended once per quarter
Level 4	All other merchants	Network Scan conducted by an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) or Qualified Security Assessor (QSA)	Recommended once per year

Keep in mind, that you’ll need to perform:

Security audit, that is made by a certified auditor acting as Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) at the legal entities, who are presented on the PCI DSS official website.
Scanning of the network, that is made by a qualified net scanning vendor acting as Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) or Qualified Security Assessor (QSA). ASV can conduct a scanning procedure for in-store and online merchants but have no rights to perform annual audits.
Internal audit, during which questions in SAQ (Self-Assessment Questionnaire) have to be answered. The questionnaire content depends on technical solution.
