2. Info-Tech Research Group2 The best path to payment card industry (PCI) compliance is to be as free as possible of PCI requirements. Secure what you have to, eliminate what you don’t need, and compliance will result naturally. Introduction Merchants Security managers or officers IT managers CFO or finance officers Understand PCI compliance as it pertains to your organization’s specific requirements. Create a strategy to achieve PCI compliance while focusing on security and reducing costs at the same time. Communicate any process or policy changes related to PCI compliance to stakeholders and the broader organization to gain support and allow for a successful transition into being a PCI-compliant institution. This Research Is Designed For: This Research Will Help You:

3. Info-Tech Research Group3 Learn from the mistakes of others, or else be prepared to do major damage control as a result of not becoming compliant. Do not delay PCI compliance any longer “…TJX experienced approximately 45 million stolen customer records.” 1 “…the US National Archives & Records Administration reports that 50% of businesses that lose their critical data for 10 days or more have to file for bankruptcy immediately.” 4 “…over 260 million records in the last decade (have been compromised), according to Privacy Rights Clearinghouse.” 3 “ 96% of victims subject to PCI DSS had not achieved compliance…Most victims fell prey because they were found to possess an (often easily) exploitable weakness rather than because they were pre-identified for an attack.” 2 “A Level 1 or Level 2 merchant can easily feel overwhelmed by the cost of upgrading the infrastructure and paying for ongoing infrastructure maintenance, as well as the assessment(s) needed to verify compliance.” 8 “Fines can be as much as $500,000 per incident for smaller companies, and experts have estimated the cost of remediation to be roughly $200 per breached record.” 5 “Nearly 70% of all breaches are occurring at smaller merchants, who are less able to absorb the high financial cost associated with a breach.” 7 “The cost of compliance is only a small fraction of the potential cost of non- compliance for Level 1 and Level 2 merchants.” 6

4. Info-Tech Research Group4 Critical POV and detailed project outline (TOC)/goals, objectives, measurements PCI compliance is not achieved by checking off every box. Be smart about your requirements, streamline, and even save money in the process. Client Project: Prioritize PCI to succeed. 1 1 Set your goals – what do you want to achieve in your PCI project? 3 3 Map PCI’s 12 core requirements to your PCI practices. 4 4 Perform a gap analysis. 5 5 Complete gap prioritization. This project has the ability to fit the following formats: Onsite workshop by Info-Tech Research Group consulting analysts Do-it-yourself with your team Remote delivery (Info-Tech Guided Implementation) Info-Tech Insight 6 6 Identify PCI Simplification Strategy. 2 2 Evaluate your current organization’s posture in relation to PCI. 7 7 Develop a PCI Simplification Launch Plan.

6. Info-Tech Research Group6 If we are conducting an on-site workshop or a Guided Implementation (GI), providing us with the following will add to the project’s value: Project Pre-work Without giving too much of the workshop contents away, be prepared to have knowledge of your PCI-related practices and policies, as well as the individuals involved in both. Come to the workshop with your feelings, beliefs, and understandings surrounding what your organization is doing in regards to PCI : ◦ Don’t think you’re doing enough? ◦ Unsure of what you’re doing at all? ◦ Don’t know what PCI actually means? Your questions and concerns are what are going to add insight and provide the dots to connect your PCI compliance action plan. On-Site Workshop Info-Tech Guided Implementation (GI) Collect as much as you can of the following: ◦ Past audit information ◦ Contact information from relevant departments ◦ Security and PCI-related policies ◦ Financial information – if you collect credit card information, where is that information?
