PCI Compliance Scanning Service

Understanding PCI Scanning: 

The Significance of PCI Scanning 

If your business processes card payments, regular PCI scanning is crucial to guarantee data security. PCI scanning, an integral part of the globally recognized Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), is essential for organizations handling bank and credit card transactions. This security check identifies potential vulnerabilities within your IT infrastructure that cybercriminals could exploit, ultimately safeguarding your valuable data. 

Why PCI Scans Are a Must:

Performing PCI scans is not just a best practice but also a necessity. Point 11.2 of PCI DSS explicitly requires these scans to protect cardholder data. While PCI compliance itself isn't legally mandated, the consequences of non-compliance can be severe. In the event of a data breach involving payment details, fines from the PCI Security Standards Council could jeopardize your financial stability. Non-compliance can also strain your relationship with your bank, potentially leading to account termination and other detrimental effects on your business operations. By conducting regular PCI scans, you proactively identify vulnerabilities, meet PCI standards, and demonstrate your commitment to data security and customer trust. 

The Timing of PCI Scanning: 

Frequency Matters 

According to PCI DSS, organizations providing merchant services or Point of Sale solutions in Dammam & Jeddah must conduct internal and external network vulnerability scans at least quarterly and after significant network changes. This regularity is key to keeping your systems secure. Scans scrutinize your IT setup and online presence, with any weaknesses requiring immediate attention and resolution.
