The PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC), an open industry standards body providing management of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), PIN Transaction Security (PTS) Security Requirements and the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS), has launched a new PCI SSC micro site, providing resources to secure payment card data in eight languages.
In addition to the English language, clients now have the option to view information in eight other languages, French, French (Canadian), German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish and Traditional Chinese. Once on the selected site, visitors can review standard materials and supporting documentation on the PCI DSS and PA-DSS and information on the council, all in selected language.
Bob Russo, general manager of the PCI SSC, said: “Payment security is a global issue and organizations around the world are taking action to secure cardholder data. By helping companies access PCI Standards in their own language, the SSC continues our mission of increasing awareness of PCI Standards as key tools to secure cardholder data globally.
“With the introduction of this micro site, we are redoubling the council’s efforts to educate globally, and making critical, native language resources and materials available to further help organizations protect and safeguard their sensitive payment information.”
