Dublin, Ireland: Advantio Ltd, is a renowned provider of cyber resilience services and solutions. We are trusted globally for delivering on time and on budget. Today, we are honoured to announce our second Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) designation in Q2 of 2019; Qualified PIN Assessor (QPA). This follows in the footsteps of the Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) certification in May 2019.
Organizations availing of Advantio cyber security expertise can now also rely on us to validate compliance with the PCI PIN Standard.
The Payment Card Brands (Visa, Mastercard, etc) decided in July 2018 to consolidate and transition the PIN Security Validation program to the PCI Security Standard Council (PCI SSC). While the program was announced then, the actual transition and opening of the application process took place in February 2019. The first QPA training and certification was then scheduled for June 2019. We are proud to be among the first Qualified PIN Security Assessor companies to attend the training and obtain the QPA designation. This enables Advantio to validate an organization’s compliance with the PCI PIN Standard.
The PCI SSC published the PCI PIN Security Requirements v3.0 in August 2018. To find out more about this, you can read our expert analysis here.
As one of Europe’s leading cyber security experts, we are proud to add the QPA designation to our existing Payment Card Industry Data Security certifications:
