A robust and comprehensive solution for businesses with in-scope infrastructures, ensuring they meet the stringent requirements of Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards compliance.
Metasure's PCI DSS Managed Service covers every aspect of Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards compliance — from initial gap analysis and security architecture through to ongoing quarterly management and board-level reporting. We work directly with Qualified Security Assessors (QSAs) and ASVs so your programme is continuous, audit-ready, and aligned with your commercial reality.

POLICY & GOVERNANCEEstablishing where you are is the first step in any compliance journey. Before you can plan the route, you need an honest picture of your current position.
Evaluation, execution and reporting — conducted by qualified testers who understand PCI scope, not just generic vulnerability assessment.
Reducing risk reduces scope — and vice versa. A thorough Cardholder Data Environment evaluation is one of the most commercially valuable exercises a merchant can undertake.
A managed service to automate and — importantly — analyse results in context. Raw scan output without expert interpretation is next to useless for compliance purposes.
Compliance is a temporal concept — the moment you stop managing it, the clock starts running against you. We keep it continuous, not episodic.
Ensuring logs are properly reviewed is essential — not just collected. An unreviewed log is a liability, not an asset.
Each acquiring bank has its own way of doing things, its own timelines and its own quirks. Let us navigate that relationship on your behalf.
Proving third-party compliance doesn't need to be time-consuming. We manage the collection, validation and tracking of Attestations of Compliance across your supply chain.
When the worst happens, how you respond is everything. A well-managed breach response can be the difference between a recoverable incident and a reputational catastrophe.
Understanding how your business actually works and translating that reality into valid, auditable process documentation that stands up to scrutiny.
The whole point of PCI DSS is to reduce Merchant CDE scope. Good architecture isn't just secure — it makes compliance significantly cheaper and simpler.
Bespoke policy, regularly reviewed by PCI experts. Generic templates will not survive a QSA audit — your policies need to reflect your actual environment.
Making sure documentation is managed and submitted on time makes the whole compliance process far less painful. We handle the SAQ so you don't have to navigate it alone.
Turning compliance data into meaningful board-level reporting. Metrics that demonstrate progress, expose risk trends, and give decision-makers genuine visibility of the programme.
