PCI Compliance: Understand and Implement Effective PCI Data Security Standard Compliance, Second Edition, discusses not only how to apply PCI in a practical and cost-effective way but more importantly why. The book explains what the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is and why it is here to stay; how it applies to information technology (IT) and information security professionals and their organization; how to deal with PCI assessors; and how to plan and manage PCI DSS project.
