PCI DSS Scoping & Readiness Assessments:  Is your organization new to PCI compliance? If not, have you made changes to your systems and overall business model that will require a re-examination of controls for purpose of PCI?  Questions such as these often result in companies performing a PCI DSS scoping & readiness assessment as unearthing, assessing, and ultimately correcting gaps and noted deficiencies within one’s environment is critical to becoming PCI compliant.

PCI SAQ Assistance and Completion of Attestation of Compliance (AoC):  Of the millions of merchant ID accounts assigned to businesses throughout North America, the vast majority of entities can self-assess via any number of the PCI DSS Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQ).  While businesses all throughout San Francisco are being required to become PCI DSS compliant, thankfully many of these entities can also self-assess with the PCI DSS Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQ) available at pcisecuritystandards.org.

The challenge, however, is that merchants and service providers run into is the overall complexity and length of the SAQ documents. With upwards of 200 mandates – many of them technical – for some of the SAQ forms (i.e., SAQ A-EP and SAQ D), compliance becomes extremely challenging and operationally taxing.  Soon thereafter, frustration sets in and companies simply ignore and completely abandon PCI compliance because of frustration with the SAQ documents.  If you need help with your SAQ, we can assist.

PCI Policy and Procedures Writing:  While most businesses focus on the technical aspects of PCI compliance, such as firewalls, routers, databases, encryption, and numerous other security topics, they often fail to understand the importance of documentation.  It’s something that’s easy to “slip through the cracks”, after all, you’re busy trying to configure and enhance the security provisions necessary for PCI compliance, so PCI policies and procedures are often secondary in terms of prioritization.

Unfortunately, while documentation may not be tops on your list of PCI DSS “to do” items, developing all the necessary PCI policies and procedures can be an incredibly time-consuming process, but not with Materdei Consulting, LLC. Sure, we provide the very best PCI policies and Procedures found anywhere, but we also offer comprehensive writing services if you desire additional customization or are just short on time or staff.  Time is money, and we’re here to help you save both on PCI compliance for San Francisco businesses.  Contact us today at pcip@pcipolicyportal.com, or call us at 424-274-1952 to learn more.
