PCI Compliance Posture dashboard

The PCI Compliance Posture scorecard provides a summary of how compliant you are in each of the major PCI data security standards (DSS) requirements based on the data you are collecting in your environment. The PCI data security standard requires that you monitor your log data on a daily basis to look for anomalies that can impact cardholder data within the cardholder data environment.

Use this dashboard to see the total number of new issues, open issues, and closed issues found in your PCI environment. Compare the current status with the historical trend. View a summary of each Requirement to see the current status of compliance for each control section. Use this dashboard as a real-time launch point into individual Requirement Scorecards or to view the incidents within the Incident Review dashboard. Identify the issue owners and respond efficiently.

  • If all issues are closed, the light will show green.

The number next to the lights indicates the number of new, open, and closed compliance issues. These statuses are configurable.
