Protect Your Business Against Data Breaches
Why merchants and vendors should abide by the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard—and how to do so easily Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, cybercrime has been on the rise. Compared to 2019, phishing and ransomware attacks increased by 11% and 6% respectively in 2020, according to a recent report from Verizon. It’s no coincidence that these virtual methods of fraud are gaining popularity. With more people working and shopping from home, and businesses increasingly relying on cloud computing, fraudsters are increasingly focusing on stealing data online. Merchants and vendors have reason for concern—but there’s no need to panic. The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) offers a template for businesses to protect themselves against threats both on- and offline. Created in 2006 after a data breach at TJ Maxx that affected millions of consumers, the PCI DSS is a 12-step process that merchants and vendors can follow to maintain a secure card-processing environment. Businesses that follow the guidelines laid out in the PCI DSS are far less likely to face the devastating effects of a data breach.
