What is PCI-DSS?
β’ PCI DSS is a widely accepted set of policies
and procedures intended to optimize the
security of credit, and debit card transactions
and protect cardholders against misuse of
their personal information.
β’ The PCI DSS was created jointly in 2004 by
four major credit-card companies: Visa,
What is meant by Cardholder Data?
β’ Cardholder data refers to any information
contained on a customerβs payment card. Data is printed on either side of the card and is
contained in digital format on the magnetic stripe or in the chip embedded on the front side.
β’ Cardholder data includes the primary account
number (PAN), cardholder name, expiration date and the 3-4 digit card verification number

Where are we today?
β’ In 2010 all merchants completed the Self Assessment Questionnaires and the
Attestation of Compliance.
Where are we today?
β’ Feb, 2013 we upgraded CORE, which is the
software that the cashiers use and once the self assessment is completed the main cashiers office will be compliant.
β’ Oct, 2013 Raiserβs Edge has been upgraded for Donor Relations which will contribute towards becoming compliant. Donor Relations also has Online Donation forms which must be replaced to
bring them to full compliance. This work is forecast to
Where are we today?
β’ Nov, 2013 β Meetings will be initiated with
Kinesiology to plan the upgrade to the CLASS application to bring it to PCI DSS compliance β’ The goal is to have the entire U of M PCI
Why Is Compliance So Important?
A security breach and subsequent compromise of payment card data has far reaching consequences:
οΌLoss of reputation οΌLoss of customers
οΌPotential financial liabilities, such as fines of up to $500,000 for a breach; $10,000 per month for non compliance
οΌLitigation
Who Does PCI DSS Apply To?
PCI DSS applies to all organizations that
process, store or transmit cardholder data: οΌmerchants
οΌpayment card issuing banks οΌprocessors
οΌsoftware developers οΌother vendors
What Are the PCI Requirements?
REQUIREMENTS
(note: requirements not listed are the responsibility of IST)
3. Protect stored cardholder data (eg. mask PAN when displayed; donβt store unnecessary data such as PIN)
7. Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know (eg. limit access to system components)
What Are the PCI DSS Requirements?
REQUIREMENTS
(note: requirements not listed are the responsibility of IST)
9. Restrict physical access to cardholder data
The Self Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ)
The Self Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) is a validation tool intended to assist merchants in self-evaluating their compliance with the PCI-DSS.
The Self Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ)
Merchants are pre-assigned to an SAQ based on specific eligibility criteria:
β’ SAQ A: telephone (IVR) or web processing; β’ SAQ B: standalone POS terminal;
β’ SAQ C: card processing via a 3rd party payment
application.
Self Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ)
β’ Questions on the SAQβs are derived from the PCI Requirements relevant to merchant type.
οΌSAQ A covers Requirements 9 (physical
storage of data) and 12 (familiarity with Cash Control Policy) only.
Process going forward
β’ The assigned SAQ and Attestation of
Compliance forms will be sent to each merchant owner for completion, within the next week.
β’ The requested completion date is Nov 30th. β’ Forward the completed documents, soft and
Self Assessment Questionnaire for POS Merchants (SAQ B)
Requirement 3: Protect stored cardholder data
In general, no cardholder data should ever be stored unless itβs necessary to meet the needs of the business. Sensitive data on the magnetic stripe or chip must never be stored. If your organization stores PAN, it is crucial to render it unreadable (see 3.3).
QUESTION RESPONSE: YES NO N/A
3.2 Do all systems adhere to the following requirements regarding storage of sensitive authentication data after authorization (even if encrypted)?
3.2.1 Do not store the full contents of any track from the magnetic stripe (located on the back of a card, contained in a chip, or elsewhere). This data is alternatively called full track, track, track 1, track 2, and magnetic-stripe data.
In the normal course of business, the following data elements from the magnetic stripe may need to be retained:
β’ The cardholderβs name,
β’ Primary account number (PAN),
β’ Expiration date, and
β’ Service code
To minimize risk, store only these data elements as needed for business. NEVER store the card verification code (CVV2) or value or PIN verification value data elements.
3.2.2 NEVER store the card-validation code or value (three-digit or four-digit number printed on the front or back of a payment card) used to verify card-not-present transactions.
3.2.3 Do not store the personal identification number (PIN) or the encrypted PIN block.
3.3 Is the PAN masked when displayed? The cardholder receipt generated by all electronic POS terminals, whether attended or unattended, must reflect only the last four (4) digits of the PAN. All preceding digits of the PAN must be replaced with fill characters, such as βX,β β*,β or β#,β that are neither blank spaces nor numeric characters.
Note:
Requirement 7: Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know
To ensure critical data can only be accessed by authorized personnel, systems and processes must be in place to limit access based on need-to-know and according to job responsibilities.
Need-to-know is when access rights are granted to only the least amount of data and privileges needed to perform a job.
QUESTION RESPONSE YES NO N/A
Requirement 9: Restrict physical access to cardholder data.
Any physical access to data or systems that house cardholder data provides the opportunity for individuals to access devices or data and to remove systems or hardcopies, and should be appropriately restricted.
QUESTION RESPONSE: YES NO N/A 9.6 Are all paper and electronic media that contain cardholder data physically secure? (including
computers, removable electronic media, networking, and communications hardware, telecommunication lines, paper receipts, paper reports, and faxes).
9.7 (a) Is strict control maintained over the internal or external distribution of any kind of media that contains cardholder data?
(b) Do controls include the following:
9.7.1 Is the media classified so it can be identified as confidential?
9.7.2 Is the media sent by secured courier or other delivery method that can be accurately tracked?
9.8 Are processes and procedures in place to ensure management approval is obtained prior to moving any and all media containing cardholder data from a secured area (especially when media is distributed to individuals)?
9.9 Is strict control maintained over the storage and accessibility of media that contains cardholder data?
9.10 Is media containing cardholder data destroyed when it is no longer needed for business or legal reasons?
Destruction should be as follows:
Requirement 12: Maintain a policy that addresses information security.
The Universityβs Cash Control policy and procedures reference the acceptance and handling of payment cards.
Adherence to the terms of these documents is required to ensure information security.
*A new information security policy that will address protection of electronic cardholder data is currently being developed by IST.*
UM Cash Control Policy and Procedure Requirements Additional Information YES NO
Excerpt from Policy Document:
Section 2.2: All departments of the University whose activities include the acceptance and handling of cash on the Universityβs behalf are responsible for ensuring that:
(a) adequate controls and procedures are in place to safeguard cash from
time of receipt to time of deposit to a University authorized bank account through Financial Services;
(b) all cash and receipts are properly recorded and accounted for; and
(c) customer payment information is stored in a secure manner.
All employees entrusted with handling cash and credit card payment are familiar with the Cash Control Policy. Full document available at:

The University contracts with TD Merchant Services for the provision of its Visa and Master Card merchant services. All payment card revenue must be deposited to the Universityβs main bank account. Departments must advise Financial Services of any situation where this is not the case.
Attestation of Compliance
β’ After completing the SAQ, the merchant must complete the Attestation of Compliance to
confirm that:
1. the merchant qualified for the SAQ 2. the merchant is in compliance
Part 2. Eligibility to Complete SAQ B
Complete this section to confirm your eligibility to use SAQ B:
__Yes Merchant uses only standalone, dial-up terminals; and the standalone, dial-up terminals __No are not connected to the Internet or any other systems within the merchant environment;
__Yes Merchant does not store cardholder data in electronic format; and __No
__Yes If Merchant does store cardholder data, such data is only paper reports or copies of paper __No receipts and is not received electronically.
Part 3. PCI DSS Validation
Based on the results noted in the SAQ dated Nov 30, 2013, Merchant 123 asserts the following compliance status (check one):
__Compliant: All sections of the PCI SAQ are complete and all questions answered βyesβ. Therefore Merchant 123 has demonstrated full compliance with the PCI DSS.
__Non-Compliant: Not all sections of the PCI SAQ are complete or some questions are
answered βnoβ, resulting in an overall NON- COMPLIANT rating, thereby Merchant 123 has not
demonstrated full compliance with the PCI DSS.
