This episode of the Security Metrics Podcast discusses the transition from the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS) to the Software Security Framework (SSF). The guest speaker, Jake Marcinko, is a Standards Manager at the PCI Security Standards Council and chairs the SSF working groups.

Listen to learn:

• How the PCI Security Standards Council is continuously evolving the SSF to keep pace with emerging threats and technologies.
• Why the SSF replaced the previous Payment Application Data Security Standard (PADSS).
• The recent updates to SSF to address the increasing use of cloud-based applications.

Filmed at the 2023 PCI Community Meeting in Dublin, Ireland.

Hosted by Jen Stone, Principal Security Analyst (MCIS, CISSP, CISA, QSA)

A note from Jen: We built Practical Cybersecurity because we were tired of the fear-mongering in this industry. Security shouldn't be a secret club.
