PCI Compliant Hosting | FTP Today Compliance

FTP Today provides every possible control for you to securely safeguard cardholder information compliant with PCI-DSS security standards.

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard is a proprietary information security standard for organizations that handle cardholder information for the major debit, credit, prepaid, e-purse, ATM, and POS cards. The latest version specifies 12 requirements for compliance, organized into six logically related groups, which are called “control objectives”.
