Coffee with the Council Podcast: Celebrating 20 Years of Securing Payment Data

When the PCI Security Standards Council was created in 2006, the goal was to create a forum for the ongoing development, enhancement, and implementation of security standards for account data protection. Since then, the Council has not only achieved that goal but also created a space for industry leaders to come together and shape the direction of the industry.  Throughout our conversations with stakeholders, we explored a variety of topics about the Council’s journey and the evolution of the payments industry. To begin, we asked them to share their memories of how the Council, or the payments industry itself, has evolved over the last 20 years. Their responses offer a look back at the milestones, partnerships, and progress that have shaped the journey.
