Understanding PCI DSS Compliance for File Transfer
One of the best chances that businesses have to
prevent a catastrophic (and costly) data breach
involves making sure that they remain compliant
in the digital age. Maintaining compliance means
paying close attention to not only file security,
but privacy at the same time. Understanding PCI
DSS compliance for file transfer always involves
keeping a few key things in mind.

WHAT IS PCI DSS COMPLIANCE FILE TRANSFER?
At its core, PCI DSS is a set of requirements
governing the security of account data. This can
include account numbers, cardholder names for
credit cards and other forms of payment
information, expiration dates for the same types
of payment information and more. These
requirements are necessary for the healthcare and
financial services industries, in particular,
where a data breach could potentially result in
irreparable damage to a business' reputation,
identity theft and other forms of damage.

How to Remain PCI DSS Compliant
In order to protect both your business and your
customers from cyber threats, you need to take a
close look at all of your integral system
components and make sure that they are PCI DSS
compliant. System components can be broken down
into a few distinct categories depending on
exactly what you're talking about.

Network components, for example, refers to all
switches, routers and other hardware in your
infrastructure that connects your devices to the
Internet. Applications would involve any software
that you use to store or access this type of
information, including all applications that
you've purchased and any apps that you've built
in-house. All servers also need to remain
compliant, including file transfer servers, Web
servers, database servers and others that you and
your team use on a daily basis.
