The PCI DSS was developed by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council and is mandatory for all organizations that process, store, or transmit credit card data, whether it's physical cards or electronic payments. To comply with the PCI DSS, organizations must regularly test and validate their security measures through an external Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) audit, such as Forty-two Security.

While LCL does not process credit card data, taking these measures proves to be a reliable partner for customers who do. The most important criteria for processing this data are both physical equipment shielding and logical security.
