HackerGuardian PCI DSS Compliance Scanning is an online service that assesses network vulnerability and reports on compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. PCI DSS is a global standard designed to secure cardholder data that is stored, processed, or transmitted by an organization.
This donation provides a subscription to HackerGuardian that allows you to conduct 10 scans per quarter on up to five IP addresses for a period of three years. If an IP address successfully passes the PCI scan criteria, your organization will be provided with a PCI compliance report that can be sent to an acquiring bank or credit card processor as an assertion of PCI DSS compliance.
Benefits for Organizations
If you are a systems administrator who has experience working with networks and server infrastructure, you can use HackerGuardian to
- Ensure that donor or client payment data is secured
- Avoid financial penalty by complying with the standards set by the PCI Security Standards Council
Major Capabilities
- Industry-approved scans: Comodo is recognized by the PCI Security Standards Council as an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV).
- Reporting: After each scan, organizations are supplied with a report that identifies security vulnerabilities and offers solutions and risk-mitigation advice.
- Payment credential logo: A payment credential logo notifies site visitors that a website is authorized to accept credit card payments (requires knowledge of HTML and JavaScript to install).
- Self-assessment questionnaire: Comodo provides an online self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ). Completing an annual SAQ is one of the requirements when applying with an acquiring bank or credit card processor for PCI compliance.

Applying for PCI DSS Compliance
Although this product can help an organization meet the PCI DSS requirements, it does not provide PCI DSS compliance on its own. Depending on its transactional volume, an organization must also complete an annual self-assessment questionnaire or on-site audit and submit the results to its acquiring bank or payment processor. Contact your acquiring bank or payment processor and see the PCI Security Standards Council website for detailed requirements.
