PAYMENT METHOD ASSURANCE

PCI DSS

Ensuring compliance with PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards) is crucial for securing payment transactions on website. Here’s how PlusBase is ensuring compliance:

1. Understand the PCI DSS Requirements

 PCI DSS provides a set of requirements to protect cardholder data. These include:

• Maintaining a secure network (e.g., firewalls).
• Protecting cardholder data through encryption.
• Implementing access control measures.
• Regularly monitoring and testing networks

2. Work with a PCI-Compliant Payment Processor

• Use trusted payment gateways like Stripe, PayPal Payments, which are already PCI compliant. PlusBase integrates with such processors, simplifying compliance.
• Confirm that the payment processor handles most or all cardholder data, minimizing your PCI scope. Therefore, they can guarantee that all of your payment information is secured and protected. 

3. Enable SSL on Website

• Ensure that website uses HTTPS, which is required for transmitting sensitive data securely.

4. Use Secure Hosting Providers

• Platforms like ShopBase or other e-commerce platforms often offer PCI compliance as part of their service.

5. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act

• In 1998, Congress passed the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), which amended U.S. copyright law to address important parts of the relationship between copyright and the internet.
