This may seem like plenty of time, but it’s less than it appears when accounting for budgeting, planning, implementation, testing, and attesting solutions.
This report introduces solutions to achieve compliance with PCI DSS 4.0 to secure the cardholder ecosystem, including its supply chain. It intends to help enterprise architects, DevOps and SecOps managers, and CISOs avoid overspending on solutions that are over- or under-engineered for their needs.
