[ COURSE ] The PCI DSS Future Dated Requirements Deadline is almost here .. Are you ready ?
Be ready or get fined !
2025 is just a few weeks away now, and we have some big regulatory deadlines coming up
One of the major ones are the future dated requirements of version 4.0 of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Industry (PCI DSS) Standard
PCI DSS, if you are not aware, is a global technical security standard that applies to anyone who stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data
If you have worked in Cybersecurity for any amount of years, then you will have come into contact with this standard in one form or another
As of 31st March 2025 .. the future dated requirements of the new version become effective
These were considered “best practice” until now but now it is time to put these into effect or risk your PCI certification
PCI DSS 4.0 is an extensive change to the previous version of PCI DSS
There have been a lot of shakeups about terminologies like “network security controls” replacing firewalls and routers and “anti-malware” replacing antivirus, etc.
A good idea is to review the summary of changes document on the official PCI website.
As I mentioned, some of them are optional until March 2025, but creating a tracker of the upcoming changes is a good idea so you are not surprised when they come into effect!
Another good idea is to refresh your knowledge of the PCI DSS standard v4.0 to make sure you are ready for the next round of audits
