The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard

Since PCI was introduced, merchants and service providers that store, process, or transmit credit card data have been striving to comply with a multitude of requirements. If they don’t succeed, they face costly consequences such as fines, notification costs, and brand damage. Yet implementing an effective PCI compliance program while warding off attacks and protecting data is a significant challenge for most organizations, especially given recent budgetary and resource constraints. How can you demonstrate compliance, not treat it as a point-in-time exercise, and instead—engage in compliance as an ongoing process of continually collecting data, monitoring, measuring, and reporting? With the right tools and technologies, achieving and maintaining PCI compliance is possible, and can be simpler and more affordable than you imagine.

nFX Solutions for Simplifying and Automating PCI Compliance

Regardless of the size or type of your organization—whether a small e-commerce site, midsized bank, large healthcare company, or managed service provider—netForensics security information management (SIM) and log management solutions will help you address your most pressing PCI compliance and audit-readiness challenges.

nFX solutions collect data from your existing security and network products and identifies, assesses, and reports on security issues across your network. Data from corporate firewalls, IDS systems, vulnerability scanners, routers, web servers, databases, and even proprietary applications is automatically correlated and analyzed to identify noncompliant systems, broken processes, and unresolved violations. This helps you bring your environment into compliance before an audit, while a multitude of reports ultimately provide demonstrable evidence of your compliance efforts.

Logging Alone is Not Logical

Being able to "check the box" on PCI requirements and validate that proper controls are in place and effective requires more than just plugging in a log management tool and forgetting about it. Unlike typical log management solutions that merely collect, store, and report on raw event logs, nFX solutions add a layer of security intelligence by employing multiple layers of patented correlation technology.

This means that you don’t just collect and store event logs—you can stop even the most stealth threats and low and slow attacks in their tracks. And when incidents do occur, you can rapidly remediate them with integrated incident-handling capabilities and best-practice guidance.
