The Role of Configuration Audit & Control In PCI Compliance
Many requirements in the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard focus on the ability to monitor and report on changes made across the IT environment. The standard requires not only that you achieve a secure state for you cardholder data, but that you be able to prove that state doesn't change over time.
Configuration Auditing meets these PCI requirements by:
- Confirming access to computing resources and cardholder data is limited to the proper individuals
- Validating that patches are deployed properly
- Alerting you to unauthorized changes to firewall rules
- Ensuring wireless network security policies are not circumvented
- Detecting new, modified, or deleted user IDs
- Maintaining file integrity across the entire enterprise
