PCI DSS Self Assessment
Clients often approach us when the bank has demanded they comply and that they fill in a PCI DSS Self Assessment Questionnaire. The process can be daunting and intimidating but we have helped hundreds of companies through this processes, providing complete peace of mind. We take away the strain, manage all communication and both quickly and cost effectively help business to meet the demands of the Bank.
PCI DSS Certification
The Agenci assess and certify businesses ensuring controls are in place to implement and manage the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) regulation.
This is for any business that stores, processes and transmits cardholder details as required by card schemes such as Master Card and Visa. Agenci deliver PCI DSS gap analysis, remediation, implementation and self assessments. Where a company that operates credit card transactions but does not comply there is the danger of being put out of business as well as covering the costs of investigations, fraud and credit card replacement.
The standards that make up PCI DSS are an obligation enforced by banks that establish service agreements with businesses that operate credit card systems.
PCI DSS Compliance Levels
There are four levels of PCI DSS Compliance with Level 1 being the highest. The level depends on:
- the volume of transactions processed
- how the transactions are processed (how the payment gateway is used)
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Level 4 |
| Businesses processing 6 million + transactions per year | Businesses processing 1 – 6 million transactions per year | Businesses processing 20,000 to 1 million transactions per year | Businesses processing less than 20,000 transactions per year |
With 12 sections to the PCI DSS standard and over 240 individual controls to assess we make the process painless and cost effective.
