PCI Dream Team at Secure360 2021

Back by popular demand, the PCI Dream Team will again be taking our show to Secure360 this May 11 (Tuesday) at 4PM CT/2100 UTC.

Secure360 is the Upper Midwest’s premier security conference and will be meeting again virtually on Tuesday, May 11 and Wednesday, May 12.  It is well worth the cost to attend as there are always many informative sessions and keynotes.  If interested, you can register here.

While not in person last year, we had a great time answering a variety of PCI and not so PCI security questions.  We look forward to having another great session this year.

If you want to make sure your question gets answered, please submit them before the session at pcidreamteam AT gmail DOT com.

We look forward to seeing you at Secure360.

Quick Update on PCI DSS v4

In the February 2021 Assessor newsletter, the Council announced the following.

“Because of the broad impact PCI DSS has on the payment community, the Council is seeking additional feedback into the PCI DSS v4.0 validation documents. As a result of expanding stakeholder feedback opportunities to include these supporting documents, the Council is now targeting a Q4 2021 completion date for PCI DSS v4.0. The publication and availability of PCI DSS v4.0 is still being determined. The Council will communicate the targeted publication date in the coming months.”

So we will apparently see one more iteration of v4 before it is released. According to their blog post, the comment period will start around June 2021.

See their blog post for more information.
