Criminal IP Secures PCI DSS v4.0 Certification, Enhancing Payment Security with Top-Level Compliance

AI SPERA, a leading Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) company, has achieved PCI DSS v4.0 certification for its flagship search engine solution, Criminal IP. This accomplishment builds on last year’s attainment of PCI DSS v3.2.1 (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) certification and marks a significant milestone in the company’s ongoing efforts to enhance security, further solidifying its leadership in the global market.

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is an international information security standard established by the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC), which includes major global card brands. PCI DSS certification is a critical requirement in the financial industry for preventing credit card fraud and data breaches. Companies that earn this certification are verified as capable of securely managing customers’ payment information.

AI SPERA’s newly acquired PCI DSS v4.0 certification represents the latest version of this standard, featuring enhanced security requirements that address emerging threats and technological advancements. Key assessment areas include maintaining secure networks and systems, protecting cardholder data, managing vulnerabilities and malware threats, enforcing strong access control measures, conducting regular monitoring and testing, and managing information security policies. Criminal IP has been rated at the highest level across all these criteria.

The CTO of AI SPERA stated, “Achieving the highest level of PCI DSS v4.0 certification showcases our capabilities and commitment as a global security service provider. We will continue to prioritize protecting customer payment data while offering secure and trustworthy services.”
