Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)
Retail companies that process, store or transmit payment card data must comply with PCI DSS. PCI DSS is a set of security standards designed to ensure that all companies that accept, process, store or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment. Cybersecurity training is necessary to educate employees on PCI DSS requirements, such as how to handle payment card data securely, how to identify and report suspicious activity, and how to respond to a data breach.
