PCI DSS v4.0.1, on autopilot
Cardholder-data scoping, segmentation evidence, quarterly ASV scans, and QSA-ready workpapers — generated continuously, not scrambled at year-end.

What is PCI DSS?
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard is maintained by the PCI Security Standards Council — the body jointly governed by Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and JCB. It applies to any organization that stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data, plus the service providers that touch that data on their behalf.
Version 4.0.1 tightened expectations around continuous monitoring, targeted risk analyses, and the customized approach to controls — making point-in-time evidence a losing strategy. The validation path depends on your volume: smaller merchants complete a SAQ, while Level 1 merchants and most service providers need a full Report on Compliance from a Qualified Security Assessor.
Chequr treats PCI as a living program. Scope stays tight, evidence stays fresh, and your QSA gets a workpaper package that closes on time — every year.
Every requirement group, mapped
Twelve requirements, six goals — all pre-wired to the evidence, policies, and tests your QSA will ask for.
Secure network & systems
Segment the cardholder data environment, enforce firewall rulesets, and retire vendor defaults across the stack.
Protect stored & in-transit data
Tokenize PAN storage, enforce strong cryptography, and prove key-management rotation with auto-collected evidence.
Keep systems hardened
Continuous anti-malware, patch SLAs, and secure SDLC proof pulled from your ticketing and CI/CD pipelines.
Restrict access by need-to-know
Role-based access, MFA on every admin surface, and physical-access attestations stitched together automatically.
Track & test every path
Unified log aggregation, quarterly ASV scan tracking, and annual penetration-test coordination with evidence capture.
Information security policy
AI-drafted PCI-aligned policies, acknowledgements, incident-response runbooks, and vendor due-diligence packets.
Automation built for the cardholder-data environment
Four AI-native pillars turn PCI from a yearly sprint into a background process.
CDE scoping in hours, not weeks
Chequr discovers every system that stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data — and locks scope to the smallest defensible boundary.
Evidence on tap for all 12 requirements
Firewall configs, segmentation proofs, crypto attestations, log samples — pulled directly from your infrastructure and refreshed continuously.
ASV & pentest orchestration
Track quarterly ASV scans, internal vulnerability cycles, and annual penetration tests in one view — with remediation SLAs baked in.
SAQ or ROC, ready on demand
Generate the right validation artifact — SAQ A, A-EP, D, or full ROC workpapers — with every response backed by live evidence.
From kickoff to attestation
A realistic PCI journey — with Chequr doing the heavy lifting at every stage.
Day 1
Connect payments stack
Stripe, Adyen, Braintree, AWS, Cloudflare, Okta — inventoried in under an hour, with CDE boundaries drafted automatically.
Week 1
Scope & gap analysis
AI maps every system to the 12 requirements and produces a ranked readiness report with prioritized remediations.
Week 2
Policies & segmentation proofs
PCI-aligned policies go live, segmentation tests are scheduled, and control ownership is assigned across the org.
Week 4
SAQ-ready
Self-assessment validation completed for eligible merchants — AoC signed and ready to share with acquirers.
Quarter 1
ASV scans & continuous monitoring
Quarterly external scans run on schedule. Internal vulnerability monitoring flags drift the moment it appears.
Annual
ROC issued
QSA-led Report on Compliance completed with a clean workpaper package. Renewals stay quiet — no fire drills.

“Our QSA closed the ROC in half the time. The segmentation evidence alone would have taken us weeks to pull manually.”
