The Hannaford PCI Fallout

2008-03-28 13:07:12 by Marc Othersen in Security & Risk Management

Got PCI? Another aspect of data security and PCI, I did not know

2007-12-06 17:17:00 by Manu Namboodiri in Data Protection, Management and Leakage

PCI Co and ASVs

2008-03-21 23:53:00 by Random InfoSec Guy in Security Coin

Mastercard.com NOT PCI Compliant

2008-01-05 17:40:33 by Bill in Grumpy Security Guy
 
Someone has found an XSS vulnerability on mastercard.com. The place it was found, the search function, is a notorious location for XSS vulnerabilities. The XSS payload that triggers the vulnerability leads me to believe that there was a fair amount of filtering going on but I guess not enough Who does Mastercard pay PCI penalties to Related...

PCI 6.6 clarified

2008-04-22 16:47:40 by Bill in Grumpy Security Guy
 
Trey Ford has a good roundup of the new PCI 6.6 clarification in PCI 6.6 Information Supplement Released. All I have to say is well done to the PCI council! From my first pass it seems like it is pretty clear AND they understand the issues organizations are facing. I have a few nits, here and there but it is 1000% better than it was before ...
