Need for PCIDSS Compliance
RBI/ /424: Section A – Point iv: Banks should ensure that all acquiring infrastructure that is currently operational on IP (Internet Protocol) based solutions are mandatorily made to go through PCI-DSS and PA-DSS certification. This should include acquirers, processors / aggregators and large merchants RBI Mandate It is not about just compliance. It is a security imperative, especially in the wake of recent high profile data breach incident at Service Providers & Merchants. Compliance is incidental, end objective is security. Remain resilient to data breaches
17
Bank’s Approach for PCIDSS Compliance
Bank Compliance 1. On boarded a QSA Company to support in implementing PCI DSS controls at the enterprise level 2. Current State Assessment and Implementation in progress for all payment applications (switch, payment gateways, etc.), infrastructure, network and processes Merchant Compliance 1. Deployed a portal to monitor PCI DSS compliance for merchants and service providers 2. Monitoring compliance status of Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 merchants and Level 1 and Level 2 service providers 3. Assist merchants and service providers in filling the applicable SAQ Two streams of compliance program HDFC Bank has taken the initiative to share the data security alerts and advisories received from Payment brands with all its merchants. Take these alerts/advisories seriously. If not actioned on time you will get hit – as a target or by a random attack.
