SC Magazine is sponsoring an all-day virtual conference on PCI. Speakers include Steven Peltzman, CIO from the Museum of Modern Art and Troy Leach, Technical Director at the PCI Security Standards Council.
This is billed as " A completely virtual event where registrants can visit vendor booths, hear from industry experts and retrieve valuable information." Should be cool.
Registration was easy. Go to SC Magazine's site to sign up.
The PCI Security Standards Council has created The Prioritized Approach to help merchants and other organizations (including nonprofits) through their PCI DSS compliancy process. This web seminar will introduce the Prioritized Approach and how to put it to use. The Excel tool groups together the requirements of PCI DSS 1.2 into six key milestones to consider in their card data security strategy. The Prioritized Approach offers guidance on how to focus PCI DSS implementation efforts in a way that expedites the security of cardholder data. It also:
- Helps identify highest risk targets
- Creates a common language around PCI DSS implementation efforts
- Enables merchants to demonstrate progress on compliance process to key stakeholders – banks, acquirers, QSAs, others
