The Bunker makes PCI v3.0 compliance black and white with new PAYG cloud service
February 2015 by Marc Jacob
The Bunker has launched its new PCI Cloud solution. Available as a multi-tenancy or single environment, The Bunker’s PCI Cloud solution has been designed to meet all 12 PCI DSS requirements, making it one of just four UK Managed Services Hosting Providers on the VISA Merchant Agent List capable of delivering full compliance with the new PCI DSS standards v3.0.
Having come into force on January 1 2015, the new PCI DSS standards v3.0 put the responsibility of compliance for all 12 key areas of PCI DSS on the business itself – regardless of whether it is working with a third-party specialist. Many Service Providers currently only have ‘Hosting Provider’ VISA status, which makes them compliant with as little as two of the 12 requirements and leaves the customer to manage the rest. This makes the enterprise more liable to regulatory fines.
