PCI DSS 4.0 Unraveled
PCI DSS 4.0 Unraveled: Seize the opportunity to nail security upskilling for developers
If you’re an AppSec or development manager, you have likely noticed by now that most developers aren’t thrilled at the prospect of compliance training. Even the word “compliance” has most people stifling a yawn. However, it is a vital exercise, and we need to do better to capture the hearts and minds of the development cohort.
Secure software development is no longer a “nice to have” in any company; it should be front-of-mind in every organization. And if that organization holds vast amounts of sensitive customer information, it is ripe for the picking when it comes to costly cyberattacks. Developers are the first to get hands-on with code, and as such, should be just as involved as the rest of the team in any security compliance measures.
This is an opportunity for the developers and AppSec professionals to band together to pursue a higher standard of code. Ever so slowly, the world is catching up to the fact that, to date, developers haven’t exactly had the right tools at their disposal to make security a priority (and siloed security specialists cannot shoulder the responsibility alone). However, as the industry moves towards an AI-augmented, DevSecOps future with security as a shared responsibility, they can build the skill set needed to help stem the flow of recurring vulnerabilities.
The 2025 deadline to comply with PCI DSS 4.0 is the industry’s biggest opportunity yet to elevate developers with the skills and tech stack required to impact software security positively from the ground up. These latest guidelines are the most operations-flexible to date, and the time is now to create a potent, custom security program that places developers in the driver’s seat of meaningful change.
Read the no-nonsense guide to getting your development team on board with PCI DSS compliance, including:
- What is required of the modern developer to achieve PCI DSS 4.0 compliance.
- How security professionals and development managers can work together to build formidable, developer-driven security programs.
- Step-by-step recommendations of the most potent, rewarding training initiatives to reduce vulnerabilities for good.
This guide offers practical strategies to engage development teams in PCI DSS 4.0 compliance. It outlines the modern developer's requirements for compliance, strategies for security professionals and development managers to collaborate on developer-focused security programs, and step-by-step advice on effective training initiatives to mitigate vulnerabilities permanently.
Secure Code Warrior is here for your organization to help you secure code across the entire software development lifecycle and create a culture in which cybersecurity is top of mind. Whether you’re an AppSec Manager, Developer, CISO, or anyone involved in security, we can help your organization reduce risks associated with insecure code.
