🎙️ This Episode: Managing Significant Changes in PCI DSS 4.0
In this episode of The Clear Perspective, Kim Singletary sits down with Shannon Swanson and Art Gray, two of Clearwater’s PCI Qualified Security Assessors (QSAs), to break down what’s changing and how organizations should respond. PCI DSS 4.0 introduces new guidelines that require organizations to define, evaluate, and document significant changes in their cardholder data environments. But what exactly counts as a “significant change,” and how should businesses categorize and track them? Our expert guests provide practical insights and recommendations to help organizations stay compliant.
Key Topics Covered:
🔹 PCI DSS 4.0 vs. 3.2.1: How the definition of significant change has evolved and why organizations must now evaluate and document changes.
🔹 Defining a Significant Change: Understand what hardware, software, or infrastructure updates qualify as major changes under PCI DSS 4.0.
🔹 Risk Analysis in PCI Compliance: Why ongoing risk analysis is now required across all 12 domains—and how to integrate it into daily operations.
🔹 Tracking & Categorizing Changes: Best practices for logging, categorizing, and documenting changes to ensure a smooth assessment process.
🔹 Assessors’ Perspective: How PCI QSAs evaluate change management practices and identify overlooked changes in an organization’s security environment.
