With the expiration of PCI DSS, the PCI Security Standards Council has unveiled the PCI Software Security Framework (SSF), a comprehensive collection of standards and programs tailored to the secure design and development of payment software.
What We offer:
The PCI SSF (payment card industry software security framework) is a specialized security framework crafted to support software vendors in creating and delivering secure payment applications to their clientele. It introduces an innovative method for affirming the security of both conventional and forthcoming payment software and applications.
The PCI SSF assessment comprises two integral components, the Secure Software Lifecycle (SLC) Standard and the Secure Software Assessment (SSA).
It is imperative to understand that these two components are distinct and separate. While an organization may necessitate an assessment of its payment applications via a Secure SLC assessment, it may not necessarily require a separate evaluation of the entity’s software through an SSA assessment.
Designed for payment software that is marketed, distributed, or licensed to external parties. This encompasses payment software meant for installation on customer systems as well as those provided to customers as a service via the Internet.
Comprises a set of security requirements and corresponding test procedures for software vendors. It serves to confirm that they effectively oversee the security of payment software across its entire lifecycle.
The PCI SSF encompasses a set of standards and programs dedicated to the secure design and development of payment software. Ensuring secure design, development, and implementation of payment software is essential for enabling reliable and precise payment transactions.
The SSF supersedes the Payment Application Data Security Standard (PA-DSS), introducing enhanced security controls and requirements that cater to a wider range of payment software categories, technologies, and development approaches.
