Thousands of vulnerabilities can be present in an organization’s network for months before they are identified. Payment card environments are of particular interest to criminal hackers and organizations (but for very different reasons) and should be safeguarded by supporting compliance with the PCI DSS.
IT Governance USA’s PCI Penetration Test aims to assess your security systems, public-facing devices and systems, databases, and other systems that store, process, or transmit cardholder data in order to discover your vulnerabilities before cyber criminals do.
Our service will help you determine whether and how a malicious user could gain unauthorized access to assets that affect the fundamental security of your system, files, logs, and/or cardholder data, and confirm the controls required by the PCI DSS are in place and effective.
We will assess key areas of your network, such as:
A high-level, non-technical summary of vulnerabilities identified and your business’s risks, which will be based on the CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System).
A detailed description of the methodologies followed, the scope of testing, and applicable PCI DSS requirements.
Overview, consultant’s commentary, and detailed descriptions of each technical vulnerability identified, with remediation advice.
This test will be performed using IT Governance USA’s proprietary security testing methodology, which is closely aligned with the SANS, OSSTMM (Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual), and OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) methodologies. It supports compliance with requirement 11.4 of the PCI DSS.
This service is suitable for organizations that are obligated to comply with the requirements of the PCI DSS.
Identify and understand the technology-related vulnerabilities affecting your network, the business impacts these present, and your PCI obligations to protect payment information.
From the detailed report, you will be able to implement secure measures (such as strong authentication and session management controls, and keeping untrusted data separate from commands and queries), thereby reducing the likelihood of a security breach while protecting your brand.
Demonstrate a strong security posture to clients by providing third-party assurances that your payment card environments are secure.
Supports compliance with not only the PCI DSS but also ISO 27001, and the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), as well as other laws, regulations, and contractual obligations.
Protect brand loyalty and corporate image by reducing the likelihood of a security breach.
Our expert consultant will provide you with updates throughout your project, from both technical and non-technical perspectives.
