Technical Writing Geek writes "Simmering discontent within the retail industry over the payment card industry (PCI) data security standards erupted into the open this week with the National Retail Federation (NRF) asking credit card companies to stop forcing retailers to store payment card data.
PCI is a data security standard mandated by Visa International Inc., MasterCard International Inc., American Express Co., Discover and the Japan Credit Bureau. It requires companies to implement a set of prescribed security controls for protecting cardholder data. Though the requirements went into affect more than two years ago, a large number of big retailers are still noncompliant because of a variety of issues that include legacy system challenges, rules interpretation issues and continuously evolving guidelines.
