Hi Fiona,

PCI Compliance is a complex payment security standard that service organizations are required to meet. Achieving compliance is difficult as the standard outlines a wide range of security requirements that should be met that involve a heavy investment of resources.

Meeting these security requirements can be quite challenging, especially for small and mid-sized organizations having budget constraints. Setting a budget for compliance can be tricky for organizations as it involves the process of scoping that can itself be quite confusing. So, setting fewer resources will result in the IT departments not being able to implement additional security measures or upgrading of equipment that may have a direct impact on payment security standards and compliance. Covering this in detail, we have shared the tentative investment required for PCI DSS Compliance Audit and some factors that determine the cost of PCI Compliance.
