Data flow
Account data entry, processing, storage, transmission and third parties.
Compliance readiness
PCI DSS cloud readiness
Reduce cardholder-data scope and implement cloud and delivery controls for a PCI DSS assessment. Turn control language into work the engineering and operations teams can perform repeatedly.
01 / Scope
Work on the system, not around it.
The engagement starts with the architecture and working constraints already in place. We agree the risky paths, make the changes visible and leave ownership with the team running the system.
Scope reduction
Tokenisation, hosted components and boundary decisions.
Technical controls
Identity, segmentation, hardening, logging and vulnerability handling.
Evidence
Owners, operating records, testing inputs and gap closure.
02 / Method
Turn control language into work the engineering and operations teams can perform repeatedly.
Scope and access are agreed before the work begins. Decisions, changes and residual risk remain visible throughout the engagement.
Set the scope
Start with evidence, owners and the constraints that shape the safe solution.
Make the control true
Prioritise by practical impact and implement with the people who operate the system.
Collect repeatable evidence
Test the changed path, document the decision and hand over a backlog that still makes sense.
