Understanding the Payment Application Data Security Standard
The PCI Security Standards Council has announced a complimentary educational webinar, “Understanding the Payment Application Data Security Standard” on Thursday May 22, 2008 at 11:30 a.m. EDT with a second session scheduled the same day at 7:30 p.m. EDT.
The new, Council-managed PA-DSS, announced on April 15, 2008, was formerly managed by Visa Inc. and known as the Payment Application Best Practices (PABP).
The goal of PA-DSS is to help software vendors and others develop secure payment applications that do not store prohibited data, such as full magnetic stripe, other sensitive authentication or PIN data, and ensure their payment applications support compliance with the PCI DSS.
This educational webinar designed for merchants, service providers and payment application software vendors will feature Bob Russo, General Manager of the Council, and the PCI SSC’s chair of the Technical Working Group, Lauren Holloway. They will address the new Standard as well as the continued transition of the entire program to the Council. Webinar participants will discover:
- What the PA-DSS is and who it applies to;
- How to get started with PA-DSS;
- Information about the transition of PABP to the Council;
- High level overview of the PA-DSS requirements.
