PCI Compliance | Payment Card Industry

The Payment Card Industry requires certain standards for businesses operating an e-commerce website.  One requirement is that the business undergo annual or quarterly analysis.  For our clients with e-commerce websites, we offer server-side PCI Compliance testing and maintenance.

  In addition to the server-side testing, the Payment Card Industry also requires an annual questionnaire to be completed regarding the individual businesses in-house processing and storage of credit card information.  Some of the questionnaire requirements are below:
