00:00:00.940 --> 00:00:04.570
Some of the PCI standards apply to products and solutions that are

00:00:04.570 --> 00:00:07.450
bought and used by participants in the payment system.

00:00:07.840 --> 00:00:08.610
For example,

00:00:08.700 --> 00:00:12.690
the secure software standard for payment applications, PTS

00:00:12.690 --> 00:00:18.940
POI for card reading terminals, and P2PE, SPoC, and CPoC for

00:00:18.940 --> 00:00:20.760
end‑to‑end payment solutions.

00:00:21.740 --> 00:00:25.140
Once a product or solution has been assessed by the appropriate assessor,

00:00:25.380 --> 00:00:30.260
the vendor of the product can apply to the PCI SSC for it to be listed on

00:00:30.260 --> 00:00:34.160
the PCI SSC website as a validated product or solution.

00:00:34.940 --> 00:00:38.290
Many card brands or schemes require their merchants and

00:00:38.290 --> 00:00:42.140
financial institutions to only use products and solutions

00:00:42.140 --> 00:00:44.260
that are listed by the PCI SSC.

00:00:45.440 --> 00:00:47.970
There is a standard process when a vendor would like to get their

00:00:47.970 --> 00:00:51.160
products or software validated by the PCI SSC.

00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:55.850
Firstly, an approved assessor evaluates the product or

00:00:55.850 --> 00:00:58.360
solution against the published standard.

00:00:58.940 --> 00:01:03.620
The assessor produces a report in a form approved by the PCI SSC

00:01:03.830 --> 00:01:07.460
and sends this report to the PCI SSC for review.

00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:10.170
Once it's been reviewed,

00:01:10.340 --> 00:01:15.370
validated products and solutions are then listed on the PCI SSC website.

00:01:15.380 --> 00:01:18.950
So, let's look at a few examples to see how this works in practice.

00:01:20.340 --> 00:01:24.440
Imagine an organization that would like to have their card reading point of

00:01:24.440 --> 00:01:30.450
interaction device validated against the PCI PTS POI standard.

00:01:31.140 --> 00:01:34.590
They send it to a PTS lab that evaluates the device

00:01:34.810 --> 00:01:36.930
and produces an evaluation report,

00:01:36.940 --> 00:01:42.580
which is then sent to the PCI SSC for evaluation and listing. What about a

00:01:42.580 --> 00:01:45.890
software development company that wants their payment software to be

00:01:45.890 --> 00:01:49.060
evaluated against the secure software standard?

00:01:49.740 --> 00:01:53.090
They'd need to find a Secure Software Assessor who would,

00:01:53.130 --> 00:01:57.790
after evaluating the software, produce a report on validation, or RoV,

00:01:58.320 --> 00:02:01.020
which the software development company would then send to the PCI

00:02:01.020 --> 00:02:05.510
SSC, who would review it, and then list the software on their list of

00:02:05.510 --> 00:02:07.560
approved or validated payment software.

00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:08.780
Finally,

00:02:08.870 --> 00:02:12.580
how about a solution provider that had a point‑to‑point

00:02:12.580 --> 00:02:15.250
encryption solution that they wanted validated?

00:02:15.550 --> 00:02:20.940
The solution provider would employ a P2PE QSA to evaluate the

00:02:20.940 --> 00:02:27.670
solution and produce a P‑RoV, a P2PE report on validation, and that

00:02:27.670 --> 00:02:31.250
will be sent to the PCI SSC, who would review it, and then list the

00:02:31.250 --> 00:02:33.060
P2PE solution on their website.

00:02:33.640 --> 00:02:37.650
So that's how the programs work in respect to the hardware and software and

00:02:37.650 --> 00:02:43.120
solutions where the PCI SSC receives the final report, so they can list the

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:49.370
product or solution on the PCI SSC website. Now let's have a look at how

00:02:49.380 --> 00:02:54.270
organizations demonstrate their compliance with the PCI standards to each

00:02:54.270 --> 00:02:58.850
other, actually. Standards that apply to how organizations look after payment

00:02:58.850 --> 00:03:05.900
card data include PCI DSS, the data security standard, PCI PIN, the 3DS core

00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:07.140
security standard,

00:03:07.150 --> 00:03:10.760
token service provider standard, and the card production standard.

00:03:11.440 --> 00:03:12.730
In this example,

00:03:12.850 --> 00:03:18.120
one organization, I've called it Organization B, requires another organization,

00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:22.060
say, Organization A, to comply with a PCI standard.

00:03:22.440 --> 00:03:26.960
Typically, Organization B is an acquirer and Organization A is a merchant,

00:03:27.060 --> 00:03:30.440
but it could be that Organization B is the merchant, asking their

00:03:30.440 --> 00:03:34.260
third‑party service provider, Organization A, to be compliant.

00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:39.010
So, Organization A will need to find an assessor authorized by

00:03:39.010 --> 00:03:43.420
the PCI SSC to assess against the standard, and who will produce

00:03:43.420 --> 00:03:46.980
the specified validation document, which Organization A can then

00:03:46.980 --> 00:03:48.460
give to Organization B.

00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:51.360
Let's work through some examples of this.

00:03:51.740 --> 00:03:54.850
Let's start with the most simple example, an acquirer that

00:03:54.850 --> 00:03:58.650
requires their merchant to comply with PCI DSS. The merchant

00:03:58.650 --> 00:04:00.840
engages a Qualified Security Assessor,

00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:04.630
a QSA, who produces a Report on Compliance, or RoC,

00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:06.560
which is given to the merchant.

00:04:06.870 --> 00:04:09.570
The merchant can then provide this Report on Compliance

00:04:09.660 --> 00:04:14.380
to their acquirer. And very similarly, in a three‑party scheme,

00:04:14.510 --> 00:04:17.760
the card scheme requires the merchant to demonstrate its compliance with PCI

00:04:17.760 --> 00:04:22.900
DSS. The merchant hires a QSA, the QSA produces the Report on Compliance,

00:04:22.900 --> 00:04:27.300
which the QSA gives to the merchant, then the merchant can pass on to the

00:04:27.300 --> 00:04:31.730
card scheme that asked them to be compliant. As you'll discover, if you look

00:04:31.730 --> 00:04:33.730
at PCI DSS in more depth,

00:04:33.760 --> 00:04:36.580
it's always the responsibility of merchants to make sure

00:04:36.580 --> 00:04:38.620
their third‑party service providers,

00:04:38.840 --> 00:04:42.750
hosting companies, anyone who provides services that can

00:04:42.750 --> 00:04:45.430
affect the security of cardholder data, those service

00:04:45.430 --> 00:04:48.160
providers also have to comply with PCI DSS.

00:04:49.640 --> 00:04:53.230
So if a merchant requires a third‑party service provider to validate its

00:04:53.230 --> 00:04:57.570
compliance with PCI DSS, the third party will hire a Qualified Security

00:04:57.570 --> 00:05:01.880
Assessor, who will produce the Report on Compliance and give that to a service

00:05:01.880 --> 00:05:05.200
provider. Then the service provider will be able to produce this Report on

00:05:05.200 --> 00:05:08.780
Compliance and give it to the merchant to prove that they are compliant with

00:05:08.780 --> 00:05:14.770
PCI DSS. We'll look at just a few more examples quite quickly. A card scheme

00:05:14.770 --> 00:05:18.800
that requires an acquiring bank to comply with the PCI PIN requirements, in

00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:19.400
this case,

00:05:19.510 --> 00:05:23.840
the assessor that's required is a Qualified PIN Assessor, or QPA. The

00:05:23.840 --> 00:05:28.970
documentation, the assessment, is provided by the assessor to the acquirer, and

00:05:28.970 --> 00:05:33.640
then the acquirer can pass it to the card scheme. And it's pretty similar for a

00:05:33.640 --> 00:05:37.700
card scheme that wants to make sure a card production facility complies with

00:05:37.700 --> 00:05:39.960
the PCI card production standards.

00:05:40.340 --> 00:05:44.120
A Card Production Security Assessor will undertake the assessment,

00:05:44.270 --> 00:05:45.880
produce two Reports on Compliance,

00:05:45.880 --> 00:05:49.240
one for logical one for physical security, and then give them to

00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:51.760
the vendor, who can pass them to the card scheme.

00:05:52.440 --> 00:05:53.070
Finally,

00:05:53.340 --> 00:05:56.160
an acquiring bank might ask a merchant to commission a PFI,

00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:00.930
a PCI forensic investigator, to investigate the cause of a

00:06:00.930 --> 00:06:02.460
breach of cardholder data.

00:06:02.940 --> 00:06:06.940
The PFI will produce the PFI Forensic Report for the merchant to

00:06:06.940 --> 00:06:10.440
give to their acquirer. So, as we've seen,

00:06:10.450 --> 00:06:14.600
each of the PCI standards has an approved assessor and specified

00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.160
documents to report the results of an assessment.
