Securing Endpoints for PCI DSS Compliance

Bit9
June 2012

Constant updating of security patches and antivirus software libraries can slow response times and leave endpoints vulnerable to APT attacks. Endpoint protection based on detecting known malware is demonstrably ineffective—and has the potential to create numerous inefficiencies across your organization. Besides potential breaches of customer PII, a lack of endpoint control can also put you at risk for steep noncompliance and regulatory penalties—fines that can range anywhere from $10,000 to $100,000 per month. Adopting a positive, proactive, trust-based security model provides better application control, improving endpoint protection against advanced attacks while helping to prove compliance with PCI DSS requirements.
