About this course

PCI DSS stands for the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. The data exchanged when a credit card transaction is performed can be highly sensitive information.

PCI DSS is a legal requirement set up by the industry in order to standardise credit card payment policies. The Independent reports that a survey based on the results of 2000 adults, 1 in 10 people in the UK have cancelled their credit/debit cards because of attempted fraud in the past year.

An issue within these transactions can affect customers, businesses, and the financial institutions that fund them. Inability to comply with PCI DSS could result in legal action or a large fine.

By the end of this PCI DSS Training course, you will know how to comply with the standard, and apply it to your business, assuring users that their data is being handled carefully and safely. The simple and straightforward steps provide an easy way to educate you and your employees.

Good, clear training

Good, clear training on PCI DSS. Felt it was appropriate and useful for my role.

Useful, indepth

A lot of reading, however useful to understand the full picture on this.

Very good information.

Easy to understand.

Good

This user gave this course a rating of 5/5 stars

missing visuals and narrator

the content was covered but this could really do with digrams, graphics, a narrator and visuals to convey the message. it was very boring and not sure the message came across

Much better than long videos

Excellent that you get to pace yourself and spend as long as you need with the material, and skip around to answer your own questions. Better than long videos with no ability to be self led.

Could have been better.

I personally would have preferred a person explaining rather than in writing.

A bit long

the course was easy enough to understand but required a lot of reading. Also, some of the information was quite technical, maybe more required for IT.
