PCI SSC take over PED program

[andrewj]

The PCI SSC PED website went live today. You can find it linked from the main page, or you can get to it directly here:

What does this mean? Well, acquirers / ISOs should ensure that they are deploying PCI compliant devices, and be sure that they are aware that deployment of any 'pre-PCI' devices is no longer permitted (although the rules around this are card brand specific, and not part of the PED program per-se).

If you're a PED vendor or acquirer, be sure to check out the approved laboratories list, and remember how sunny it is in Australia this time of year
