IPS is a Qualified Security Assessor Company (QSAC) providing compliance audits and consulting services specialized in the PCI-DSS and PA-DSS. IPS was one of the earliest adopters of PCI compliance as a service offering, ensuring its clients are prepared to address the requirements set forth by the PCI standard.

 

The PCI DSS, a set of comprehensive requirements for enhancing payment account data security, was developed by the founding payment brands of the PCI Security Standards Council, including American Express, Discover Financial Services, JCB International, MasterCard Worldwide and Visa Inc. Inc. International, to help facilitate the broad adoption of consistent data security measures on a global basis.

 

The PCI DSS is a multifaceted security standard that includes requirements for security management, policies, procedures, network architecture, software design and other critical protective measures. This comprehensive standard is intended to help organizations proactively protect customer account data.

 

The great benefits of engaging with IPS to help your organization address any PCI requirements include the cost effective nature of the audit.  With our intimate knowlege of PCI scanning appliances, and internal expertise, IPS can provide immediate and knowledgeable remediation advice and further assistance in developing secure IT practices to ensure future compliance.   Moreover, many clients have requested IPS’ PCI audits in preparation for the formal audit to reduce costs and proactively address issues.

 

In addition, we have several specialists that have also consulted our clients’ US subsidiaries and international offices to assist them with Sarbanes-Oxley and the Graham-Leach Billey Act.
