PCI DSS Compliance Is About Protecting Payment Card Data

If you want to accept payments via cards issued by the Card Schemes then you need to understand and comply with these standards. They form part of your Merchant Agreement.

PCIDSS applies to all merchants that store, process and/or transmit Payment Card Data - however the scope of its impact depends on what merchants solution you use and how you operate your business.

What is Payment

Card Data?

PCI DSS Regulates The Storing Of Payment Card Data

To reduce your PCI DSS obligations outsource the capture and processing of card data using a PCI DSS compliant service provider.

Where you must store card data the following table advises which elements can be stored and how the PCI DSS requirement section 3 relates to the security controls and key management required to store Payment Card Data.

PCI DSS Protects Data Through Data Security Controls

PCIDSS consists of 6 core principles which are accompanied by 12 requirements. Becoming PCI DSS compliant requires that you can show that you have addressed all of the requirements that apply to you. Depending on how your business handles Payment Card Data will govern how many of these principles will need to be complied with.

How you demonstrate compliance depends on your Merchant level and/or the type and number of payment channels.

Examples Of How PCI DSS Non-compliance Can Lead To An Account Data Compromise

The initial investigation has identified a number of non PCI DSS compliant practices within the merchant that could have contributed to unauthorised access to payment card data.

These include:

Multiple website vulnerabilities, identified using an ASV scan

Lack of updating new software releases and security patches

Stored email based orders that contain cardholder data

Use of non-compliant service providers such as a payment gateway, web host, shopping cart or POS application.

Insecurely stored paper records used to take telephone orders

Paper records used to transfer transaction details between systems

Default passwords were never changed.

Consequences Of An Account Data Compromise (ADC)

● If you don’t protect payment card data and/or take steps to ensure that your service providers do the same, you could be subject to an ADC event.

● If you become the subject of an ADC event you risk financial penalties, the suspension or termination of your merchant facility and remediation costs.

● You also risk damage to your brand and reputation. While many cardholder data compromises in Australia go unpublicised some have resulted in adverse publicity through national media outlets.

Determine Your Level And Reporting Obligations

Merchant Level Number of transactions per annum of either Visa or

MasterCard transactions

Level 1 > 6m

Level 2 > 1m and <6m

Level 3 < 1m and >20,000 ecommerce

Level 4 <1m and <20,000 ecommerce

Step 1. Determine your merchant level

● Your level is determined using the number of either Visa or MasterCard transaction per annum.

● Begin by identifying your merchant level, and keep track as your business grows.

● The ANZ PCI team also tracks your level and reports this through to the card schemes.

● Your merchant level determines how you validate PCI compliance.

● The PCI compliance requirements are the same for everyone, regardless of the transactions volume.

● Merchants are suspected of a data compromise they automatically become a level 1 merchants.

How To Get Started With PCI DSS

Step 3. Start assessing your business to determine the scope

● When developing your project plan to remediate any gaps, consider changing business processes not just technology.

● Your website could be integrated with alternative integration methods to significantly reduce your efforts required to reach compliance, investigate hosted payment page and iFrame options with your service provider.

● Utilise your PCI DSS compliant service providers to help reduce your scope.

Recommended Actions

1 You will require good governance. Determine who in your business must be involved, you will

require both technology, business/operations areas and SMEs.

2 Run the external vulnerability scan using the ANZ PCI portal.

3

Document your current transaction flows and understand your assessment scope. This should include cardholder data flows, processes, people and systems. Consider how to de-scope by utilising compliant service providers.

4 Remove all sensitive data and delete any stored PANs immediately to eliminate risk.

5 Use the ANZ PCI Portal Wizard to determine your SAQ type.

6 Complete the SAQ and Prioritised Approach tool, if you are not PCI compliant.

7 Develop a project plan for remediation activities, along with a target compliance date.

8 Submit your reports to ANZ on the due dates.

Quarterly task – perform an external vulnerability scan

There are ongoing quarterly obligations associated with demonstrating (proving) your level of PCI compliance:

Quarterly Network

Vulnerability Scan

PCI DSS

Requirement 11.2

To ensure PCI DSS compliance, your organisation is required to complete a Network Vulnerability Scan, fix any non-compliant vulnerabilities, and then conduct a final compliant scan each quarter.

An external vulnerability scan enables you to assess the level of security from potential external threats. PCI Approved scanning tools test network equipment, hosts, and applications for known vulnerabilities; the scan is intended to identify such vulnerabilities so they can be corrected.

A network security scan is conducted in a non-intrusive way to remotely review networks and Web applications based on your external-facing Internet Protocol (IP) addresses provided. The scan will identify vulnerabilities in operating systems, services, and devices that could be exploited by hackers to target your company’s private network.

A full technical description of the scan scope can be found in this document on pages 15-20 of the ASV Approved Scanning Vendors Program Guide.

Note: a Vulnerability Scan may not be required if your payment processing page is bank hosted or hosted by a PCI certified payment gateway. This is usually merchants completing either the SAQ A, B, or C-VT versions. Quarterly Scans are compulsory if you qualify for either the SAQ C or SAQ D version

Page 25: PCI DSS Compliance PCI DSS... · Introduction to PCI DSS 3 . PCI Security Standards Card Schemes Acquirer Council (PCI SSC) 4 Overview of PCI DSS Roles and Responsibilities Each of

Recommendations For Planning Your Quarterly Scans

Quarter activity required to achieve a PASS scan results by the reporting due dates.

Definitions: ASV means approved scanning vendor

Week 1-4 Activities

If your annual Attestation of Compliance (AOC) expires in this quarter, you will be requested for an update AOC by the due date.

ASVs are required to make ongoing improvements to detect new vulnerabilities, so perform your scan early in the process to allow for any unexpected remediation.

For SAQ D merchants, where compliance is not achieved complete a “Prioritised Approach” report using the approved template.

Week 5-8 Activities

• Perform required vulnerability remediation.

• Report false positives to your ASV vendor.

• Complete annual audit activities for the AOC.

Week 9-12 Activities

• Ensure you have a compliant ASV scan and AOC or ROC.

• Where non-compliant, advise the remediation timeframe and where applicable update the “Prioritised Approach” report showing ongoing improvements and percentages.

• Submit all reports by the Due Date.

Annual assessment requirements for Level 1 & 2 Merchants

If you are a Level 1 or Level 2 Merchant, your PCI DSS Assessments must be conducted under the supervision of a Qualified Security Assessor or one of your own staff members certified as Internal Security Assessor.

Qualified Security Assessors Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) companies are organisations that have been qualified by the PCI Security Council to have their employees assess compliance to the PCI DSS standard – details of QSA’s located in Australia can be found at: QSA Organisations.

ANZ has strong relationships with several local QSAs and would be happy to facilitate an introduction.

Internal Security Assessors are organisations that have had staff qualified by the PCI Council. The Internal Security Assessor (ISA) Program consists of training from the Council to improve the organisation’s understanding of PCI DSS.

There are a number of requirements around ISA certification at this link ISA Training Information - including pre-registration of your organisation with the PCI Security Standards Council, expertise requirements for the staff participants, online training & assessment prior to attending the training, etc.

For Level 1 and 2 Merchants, choosing whether you will appoint a QSA or train your own staff through the ISA program is an important decision and will require time and resources. We recommend that you address these questions early so that you can comply with your annual assessment requirements.

What if you are PCI DSS non-compliant?

Merchants often find that they are non-compliant with PCI DSS after they have completed their annual assessment.

In addition, a merchant’s payment environment can change and just because PCI DSS compliance has been achieved at one point in time, does not mean that the Merchant will always be compliant.

PCI DSS recognises that Merchants may not be compliant and requires that the merchant develop a remediation plan to fix any areas of non-compliance – your remediation plan should List and prioritise any remediation activities required for PCI validation. This ensures that you're remediating with a risk based approach, dealing with the highest risks first.

The PCI Council has developed the PCI DSS Prioritised Approach and the PCI DSS Prioritised Tool and Instructions

Input results from your completed Self Assessment Questionnaire into the Prioritised Approach Tool to provide an assessment of priority to remediate non-compliant requirements, based on risk. The Prioritised Approach Tool groups the PCI DSS requirements into risk-based ‘Milestones’.

It is important that you are able to demonstrate your commitment to rectify any areas of PCI DSS non-compliance by developing and implementing a remediation plan that is acceptable to ANZ. This can assist in minimising any Card Scheme fines due to non-compliance.

Target compliance dates must be included.
