Onsite Assessment Overview
Whether it's to secure your customers' card data, help your business grow, comply with PCI requirements or mandates from your sponsoring bank, you recognize the need for PCI compliance.
What is a PCI Onsite Assessment?
The Payment Card Industry (PCI) requires high-volume merchants and service providers that store, process, or transmit credit card data to have a detailed security assessment by a PCI SSC certified Qualified Security Assessor (QSA). The purpose of the assessment is to validate in person that the merchant or service provider is handling card data in accordance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS).
Is it Required?
If you are a high-volume merchant or service provider, you are required to be assessed by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) annually. The definition of high-level varies depending on the Card Brands you accept. Fines and deadlines for non-compliance vary depending on your Acquiring Bank.
