Advanced strategies are provided to tackle the unique challenges faced by startups in terms of PCI DSS compliance.

Participants will learn how to develop and implement PCI DSS compliance programs tailored to the needs and capabilities of financial startups, maximizing payment card information security while minimizing complexity and associated costs. Topics covered include risk assessment, security control implementation, conducting internal and external audits, and preparing for PCI DSS certification.
