Compliance Can Be a Bumpy Ride

Denver International Airport is among the busiest airports in the world and boasts one of the longest runways in the United States. The airport also conducts a lot of business using credit cards. DIA recently completed its Level 1 (more than 6 million transactions per year) PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) audit, a journey which had its fair share of turbulence.
However, as DIA CIO Robert Kastelitz recounted to eWEEK Labs, noncompliance was not an option. "You really don’t have a choice but to do it," Kastelitz said. "The bottom line is if you don’t do it, then the hammer [the PCI member companies] hold over your head is that they won’t let you take credit cards anymore."
