PCI Secure Software Framework

The PCI Software Security Framework (SSF) represents a fusion of both classical and contemporary software security prerequisites. Adhering to the Secure Software Standards (S3) verifies that payment software is constructed to safeguard both the integrity of the software itself and the confidentiality of the sensitive data it manages across capture, storage, processing, and transmission. This latest framework accommodates advancing technologies, diverse software types, and evolving development approaches.

The PCI SSF encompasses an array of standards and initiatives dedicated to fostering the secure conception and crafting of payment software. This newly updated SSF comprises two integral components:

  •  The Secure Software Development Life Cycle (SLC) Standard
  • The Secure Software Standard

The Secure SLC Standard delineates a set of security prerequisites and corresponding evaluation procedures for software providers.These measures ensure the proper 

management of payment software security throughout its life cycle, particularly for vendors that create software tailored for the payments industry.

Conversely, the Secure Software Standard outlines a series of security mandates and associated assessment procedures. These collectively guarantee that payment software adequately shields the integrity and confidentiality of payment transactions and associated data. This standard applies to payment software destined for sale, distribution, or licensing to third-party entities.
