Helping you stay secure
When it comes to implementing PCI DSS, you’re not alone. These easy-to-follow steps can help you along the way.
- Be single-minded – you must never use card and verification details for anything other than completing a card transaction
- Don’t share information – never pass card and card verification details to anyone else, except for the purpose of helping you complete the card transaction
- Don’t store the card security code – the last three digits on the signature strip
- Don’t keep a separate record of the card number and expiry date - you can only do this if you have the specific agreement of the cardholder , and only then if you’re going to use this information to help with future transactions, such as recurring payments or when you believe further orders are likely and it is protected according to the PCI DSS requirements
