PCI DSS Audit
Ensure the Security of Your Card Payment Environment
If your company processes, stores, or transmits credit card data, compliance with the PCI DSS standard (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is not optional – it’s a must.
Our PCI DSS audit helps you identify gaps, meet industry requirements, and build trust with customers and partners by ensuring a secure card payment environment.
Whether you’re a merchant, service provider, or payment gateway, we guide you through the entire PCI DSS compliance process – from gap analysis to certification.
What is a PCI DSS Audit?
A PCI DSS audit is a formal assessment of your organization’s security controls, policies, and infrastructure to determine whether they meet the requirements of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard.
The PCI DSS framework is designed to protect cardholder data and applies to all entities involved in processing payment card transactions – including e-commerce businesses, SaaS providers, retail networks, and payment processors.
Our audit includes:
- Readiness assessment and gap analysis,
- Technical and documentation review,
- Testing of network and application security,
- Support in remediation,
- Final audit and assistance in reporting or self-assessment (SAQ / ROC).
We work with certified PCI DSS experts (QSA / ISA) and tailor the audit scope to your business model and level of compliance.
Key Benefits of a PCI DSS Audit:
- Ensure full compliance with international card security standards,
- Avoid financial penalties and reduce the risk of a data breach,
- Build customer trust and meet contractual obligations with banks or partners,
- Improve overall security posture by identifying vulnerabilities in your payment ecosystem,
- Streamline the path to certification with guidance from experienced PCI specialists,
- Get help with SAQ validation or preparation for QSA-certified ROC.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Who needs a PCI DSS audit?
Any organization that stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data must comply with PCI DSS – this includes online stores, fintech companies, payment service providers, and even software vendors offering payment integrations.
What’s the difference between a PCI DSS audit and a gap analysis?
A gap analysis is a preparatory step to identify missing controls or documentation before a formal audit. A PCI DSS audit verifies your actual compliance and can be used to generate official reports.
What are SAQ and ROC in PCI DSS?
- SAQ (Self-Assessment Questionnaire): A simplified compliance form for lower-risk businesses.
- ROC (Report on Compliance): A full audit report conducted by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA), required for large merchants or service providers.
How often do I need to undergo a PCI DSS audit?
PCI DSS compliance must be validated annually, and security controls should be maintained continuously. Even if your transaction volume is low, regular reviews are strongly recommended.
What happens if I’m not compliant?
Non-compliance with PCI DSS may lead to fines from payment providers, increased transaction fees, reputational damage, and in extreme cases – suspension from processing payments.
