I was recenlty talking to one of Netcordia's university customers in the state
of Texas. They have over 40 merchants and store fronts on campus
allowing students and others to pay by credit card. And they've started
to get audited at least once per year for PCI DSS compliance, as they have obligation to the credit card companies to protect end user data.
They have started to use NetMRI for detecting configuration changes, monitor and manage policies, and make proactive changes.
The PCI Whitepaper
has helped them see line-by-line what they need to do to meet PCI
related issues on the network. But they are also interested in learning
from our other customers on how they've tackled the PCI issue.
Do
you have PCI requirements? If so, what have you done so far? What
challenges are you facing? Any words of advice? We'd love to know and
learn from you, and I've promised this customer that I would ask around.
Thank you in advance.
