Our PCI DSS Compliant Penetration Testing service goes beyond ATMs, covering POS terminals, PIN pads, payment gateways, and financial transaction systems to ensure compliance, fraud prevention, and data security.
The Challenges of PCI DSS Compliant Penetration Testing
Achieving PCI DSS compliance is an ongoing challenge, as POS terminals, ATMs, and payment systems are prime cybercrime targets. Evolving threats, misconfigurations, and unpatched vulnerabilities can expose cardholder data, making strong encryption, authentication, and regular security testing essential to prevent fraud and ensure seamless operations.
How can PCA Cyber Security help You?
We provide PCI DSS 4.0-compliant penetration testing to secure Cardholder Data Environments (CDEs). Our approach identifies application and network vulnerabilities, validates segmentation controls, and meets required testing frequencies. For clients using segmentation, we ensure proper CDE isolation and offer vulnerability assessment, remediation, and re-testing to maintain compliance.
Penetration Testing in Compliance with PCI DSS Requirements
Our Targets:
All external interfaces in ATMs, POS terminals, and payment devices including:
- Human-Machine Interface (HMI)
- Card readers (EMV, NFC, magnetic stripe)
- USB & Serial ports
- Ethernet & Wi-Fi connections
- Cellular & radio network interfaces
We provide PCI DSS 4.0-compliant penetration testing to secure Cardholder Data Environments (CDEs) by identifying application and network vulnerabilities, validating segmentation controls, and meeting required testing frequencies.
For clients using segmentation, we verify CDE isolation to ensure compliance with PCI DSS Requirement 11.3. Our services include vulnerability assessment, remediation, and re-testing to help organizations achieve and maintain compliance.
Aligned with PCI DSS Penetration Testing Guidance v1.1, our approach includes:
Our rigorous testing methodology helps businesses strengthen payment security, prevent data breaches, and ensure ongoing compliance.
