PCI Perspectives

  Welcome to our podcast series, Coffee with the Council. I’m Alicia Malone, Director of Communications and Public Relations for the PCI Security Standards Council. Recently, the Council published its newest standard, the Key Management and Operations, or KMO Standard. But what exactly is KMO, and how does it fit into the Council’s portfolio of standards? Here to answer all of my questions is the Council’s VP Distinguished Standards Architect, Mr. Andrew Jamieson. Welcome, Andrew. 

Welcome to the PCI Security Standards Council’s blog series, The AI Exchange: Innovators in Payment Security. This special, ongoing feature of our PCI Perspectives blog offers a resource for payment security industry stakeholders to exchange information about how they are adopting and implementing artificial intelligence (AI) into their organizations.  

The PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) has published the first major revision to the PCI Secure Software Lifecycle (Secure SLC) Standard and its supporting Program documents. The PCI Secure SLC Standard is one of two standards that are part of the PCI Software Security Framework (SSF). It provides security requirements and assessment procedures for software vendors to integrate into their software development lifecycles and to validate that secure lifecycle management practices are in place.

Don’t miss out – the 2026 PCI SSC Europe Community Meeting is approaching, and the Asia-Pacific Community Meeting is right around the corner! Take advantage of unparalleled networking opportunities, agendas filled with must-know content to bring back to your organization, and insights into the latest developments in global payment security. You can find the agendas for Edinburgh and Kuala Lumpur on our event websites!
