Fast-track to PCI DSS v4.0 compliance

With the rapid rise of online and contactless payments, alongside the increasing use of cloud platforms, it's imperative for organizations – particularly online gambling businesses with high transaction volumes and frequencies – to bolster their cybersecurity measures.

With Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) 4.0 now a mandate with 60 new requirements, compliance for online gambling industry becomes even more crucial. 

As PCI DSS v4.0 is poised to replace the existing standard by March 31, 2025, organizations have only one year to adapt to the introduced changes, safeguarding sensitive data. By March 31, 2024, PCI DSS v3.2.1 will be retired, leaving v4.0 as the sole active version of the standard.

One notable requirement of PCI DSS 4.0 is the deployment of Web Application Firewall (WAF) to safeguard public web applications.
