Today I'm starting a journey to become a PCI Professional (PCIP), and I'll be periodically updating the status of this journey on the 7MS forums. You don't need to be a QSA to get a PCIP, but you do need "2 years in IT or payments related background to have your application approved." The PCIP certification gives you (and I'm quoting from the PCI Web site): Principles of PCI DSS, PA-DSS, PCI PTS, and PCI P2PE Standards Understanding of PCI DSS requirements and intent Overview of basic payment industry terminology Understanding the transaction flow Implementing a risk-based prioritized approach Appropriate uses of compensating controls Working with third-parties and service providers How and when to use Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQs) Recognizing how new technologies affect the PCI (e.g. virtualization, tokenization, mobile, cloud) The test costs + exam for a non-participating organization (like 7MS) is $2,500. You also have to re-up every 3 years for $260 (yay, another thing to have to pay for regularly). In the miscellany department: Do you know someone who would enjoy a live 3-song acoustic concert?
