Version 4.0 of the PCI DSS was published on 31 March 2022 to meet the evolving cyber security needs of the payments industry, promote security as a continuous process and enable organisations to use different methods to achieve their security objectives.
To provide organisations with the time to implement the more complex requirements of version 4.0, the current PCI DSS v3.2.1 will remain active for two years until it is retired on 31 March 2024. If you require the skills to lead and manage a PCI DSS v3.2.1 implementation project, please purchase our Self-paced online course.
