PCI DSS

PCI DSS v4.0.1

PCI DSS defines 12 requirements for protecting cardholder data. Version 4.0 added stronger rules for system and application accounts (non-human identities), targeted risk analyses, and automated log review; the future-dated requirements became mandatory on 31 March 2025.

Applies to: Any organization that stores, processes, or transmits payment card data.

What to Know

  • Requirement 8.6 covers system and application accounts: no hard-coded passwords, periodic rotation, and controlled interactive use.
  • Requirement 10.4.1.1 expects automated mechanisms for audit log review.
  • Requirement 6.3 covers identifying and ranking vulnerabilities, including in third-party components.
