There are two ways merchants can ensure compliance with the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council’s (PCI SSC) Data Security Standards (DSS): Smaller merchants may be able to use self-questionnaires, while larger merchants may require a data security firm to provide an on-site assessment.
