7 keysteps for PCI DSS 4.0 readiness assessment

Описание: Before we dive into the 7 key steps for PCI DSS 4.0 readiness, let me give you a stark reminder of why this matters.

In 2025, Bank Sepah, one of Iran’s oldest financial institutions, suffered a massive cyberattack. Over 42 million customer records were reportedly exposed — names, national IDs, financial details — all potentially out in the wild.

While details of the breach are still emerging, it appears the attackers took advantage of gaps in basic security hygiene and data protection practices.

Now imagine — what if those records included payment card data? The financial, legal, and reputational damage would be catastrophic.

That’s why PCI DSS 4.0 is more than a checklist — it’s a proactive defense framework. It’s designed to help organizations not just pass an audit, but to build real-world resilience.
