Here’s a list of the major controls in PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) with a brief description for each:

  1. Install and Maintain a Firewall Configuration: Protect cardholder data by implementing and maintaining strong firewall policies.

    1. Network segmentation (Requirement 1.2)

    2. Secure system configurations (Requirement 2)

    3. Logging and monitoring (Requirement 10)

    4. Regular security testing (Requirement 11)

  2. NETWORK SEGMENTATION THROUGH FIREWALLS, ROUTERS, AND SILOS

  3. RBAC!!!!!!!!

  4. Do Not Use Vendor-Supplied Defaults: Change all default passwords and security parameters to prevent unauthorized access.

  5. Protect Stored Cardholder Data: Encrypt and securely store sensitive cardholder information to prevent unauthorized access.

  6. Encrypt Transmission of Cardholder Data: Use strong encryption protocols to protect cardholder data during transmission across open or public networks.

  7. Use and Regularly Update Anti-Virus Software: Ensure that anti-virus software is installed, updated, and capable of detecting, removing, and protecting against malware.

  8. Develop and Maintain Secure Systems and Applications: Regularly update systems and applications with the latest security patches to protect against vulnerabilities.
