CGDPR

DPCI DSS

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

PCI DSS stands for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, which is a set of requirements intended to ensure that all companies that process, store, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment1. The standard is administered by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council, and its use is mandated by the major card brands2. PCI DSS covers 12 requirements for compliance, organized into six control objectives, such as building and maintaining a secure network and systems, protecting cardholder data, and implementing strong access control measures3.

I’m pretty confident it’s PCI DSS. We covered it in class, and it’s specifically for organizations handling payment card data.

I’m a bit confused. I know HIPAA is for health information, but I can’t remember if PCI DSS is the one for payment cards.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I believe it was also about compliance standards. PCI DSS sounds right to me.

PCI DSS, got it. I remember learning about that standard in one of my security courses. It's the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard that businesses have to comply with when processing credit card payments.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. The question is asking about a standard for organizations that handle payment card data. HIPAA, CISA, and GDPR don't seem relevant. That leaves PCI DSS as the most likely answer.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I know HIPAA is related to healthcare, and GDPR is about data privacy, but I'm not familiar with CISA or PCI DSS. I'll have to think this through carefully.
