The PCI Security Standards Council
released its latest version, 1.2, in October. According to the previews, the
clarifications will offer improved flexibility to address today’s security
challenges. However, this version will not contain any new, major requirements
to the current twelve requirements. According to Bob Russo, general manager of
the PCI Security Standards Council, “Version 1.2 should be seen as an
improvement, not a departure from tried and true best security practices.”
