Austin, Texas · 14 weeksSOC 2 Type II Readiness for an HR PlatformPayment security, interbank messaging and operational resilience for organizations answerable to acquirers, card brands, SWIFT and supervisors.
A single payment can touch PCI DSS, PIN, 3-D Secure, SWIFT and DORA. Each is assessed separately. The infrastructure underneath is shared.
We scope once, reuse evidence wherever the standards overlap and stay exact where they diverge. We carry that work all the way to a clean assessment with your QSA.
Each has its own page with requirements, deliverables and a live demonstration.

ExploreThe specialist standards beyond PCI DSS, each with its own assessor program.
We test every applicable requirement first and turn each gap into a task with an owner and a date.
A validated P2PE solution can cut merchant scope dramatically, provided every component meets the P2PE Standard.
We take your solution through design review and evidence preparation so validation runs to plan.
Protecting PINs and their keys from entry to verification: key ceremonies, dual control, split knowledge and HSMs.
We rehearse your key ceremonies and close the gaps before the formal assessment begins.
Security for the ACS, directory server and 3DS server that handle authentication data.
Most 3DS environments share infrastructure with the CDE. We scope both together, so you test once.
The Secure Software and Secure SLC Standards replaced PA-DSS. Both reward security engineered in from the first commit.
We prepare your product and your development lifecycle for listing, so the formal assessment holds no surprises.
Logical and physical security for card manufacturers, personalizers and provisioning services.
We review your sites and networks against the Card Production standards ahead of the brand assessment.
Quarterly external scans that pass first time: complete scope, fast remediation, disputes backed by evidence.
PCI DSS external scans must come from a PCI SSC-listed ASV.
The first hours of a suspected card compromise decide how much evidence survives.
When a brand-mandated investigation starts, your logs are intact, your timeline is written and the PFI starts on day one.
A quick guide. Your acquirer or the card brands set what is formally required.
| If you are… | Primary standard | Formal validation by |
|---|---|---|
| A merchant or service provider handling card data | PCI DSS | A QSA company (ROC), or an SAQ where eligible |
| An encryption solution provider | PCI P2PE | A PCI SSC-recognized P2PE assessor |
| An entity handling PIN transactions | PCI PIN Security | A Qualified PIN Assessor, where required |
| An operator of ACS, DS or 3DS servers | PCI 3DS Core | A PCI SSC-recognized 3DS assessor |
| A payment software vendor | Secure Software · Secure SLC | A Secure Software or Secure SLC assessor |
| A card manufacturer or personalizer | Card Production & Provisioning | A card production security assessor |
Two core services, and the directive that reaches many of the entities around them.
Independent assessment against the mandatory and advisory controls for your architecture type.
Explore SWIFT CSCFFive pillars, one dependency model and evidence a supervisor can follow.
Explore DORAManagement accountability, Article 21 risk-management measures and incident reporting at 24 hours, 72 hours and one month.
For financial entities, DORA generally applies as the sector-specific act. NIS2 still reaches group companies and their providers, so we settle the national position first.
Card-data discovery and payment-flow tracing.
Requirement testing, sampling and segmentation checks.
Scope reduction and controls that meet the intent.
Validation evidence packaged for the assessor.
Scans, segmentation tests and key rotations on a calendar.
Your ROC is signed by an independent QSA company. We take you from scoping to a clean assessment, and sit beside you through fieldwork.
No. PA-DSS was retired and replaced by the PCI Software Security Framework.
No. Used correctly, it can make you eligible for a much shorter SAQ.
External PCI DSS scans come from a PCI SSC-listed ASV. We coordinate them, remediate failing results and prepare the dispute evidence.
DORA generally applies as the sector-specific act. Group companies outside DORA may still fall under national NIS2 law, so we map it entity by entity.
