The digitization of payments brought speed and ease to processing but bad actors continually find new and clever ways to launder, hack, and phish payments and user data. This has led to increased security measures and compliance standards by governments and the payment cards industry (PCI). Universities are prime targets but with PCI-compliant payment solutions they can mitigate security risks, be prepared, and quickly respond to the ever-changing regulations to best protect student and institutional data.

This session will cover how to understand PCI standards, their scope and evolution, and your university’s role in securing payments and demonstrating compliance. We’ll define industry acronyms and focus on the fundamentals of payments security and compliance. We’ll also share solutions, best practices, and easy to follow checklists to ensure data security, simplify PCI compliance, and reduce your PCI footprint to ease compliance attestation and complex reconciliation.

Security and compliance is more than filling out paperwork, it's a coordinated effort across a campus and its complex affairs. Learn how your university can not merely implement the standards at a bare minimum but instead use them as a framework for employing higher safeguards and better processes across the university’s administration and operations.
