What does PCI compliance involve?

PCI compliance includes two key standards: 

  • PCI DSS (Data Security Standard): Applies to any entity handling cardholder data. It mandates secure networks, systems, and payment processes. 

  • PCI PTS (PIN Transaction Security): Applies to hardware like payment terminals, ensuring physical and logical device security. 

Why it matters: 

  • Helps prevent breaches and fraud 

  • Protects against financial and reputational risk 

  • Required by acquirers and card brands 

  • Ensures secure, trusted payment acceptance 

Ingenico supports PCI compliance with: 

  • PCI PTS-certified terminals across the entire portfolio 

  • Security tools such as Remote Key Injection (RKI) and estate management platforms to help manage keys, updates, and compliance status remotely 

  • Compatibility with PCI-validated P2PE solutions and support for strong encryption technologies, helping reduce the scope and complexity of PCI DSS requirements
