Book a 30-minute call with one of our QSA experts. We'll discuss your business environment, card data flows, current compliance posture, and what type of assessment you need.
No commitment. No jargon. Just clarity.
We analyse your current environment against PCI DSS v4.0 requirements. You receive a detailed report of compliance gaps and a prioritised remediation plan tailored to your business.
Our certified QSA assessors conduct your formal PCI DSS assessment. We guide you
through remediation, evidence collection, and issue your ROC or AOC upon successful
completion.
It depends on your merchant or service provider level. Level 1 merchants (processing over 6 million card transactions/year) are required to complete a Report on Compliance (ROC) with a Qualified Security Assessor. Many other organisations also choose QSA-led assessments for greater rigour and confidence. We can help you determine which applies to your business — book a discovery call to find out.
The timeline varies depending on the scope of your cardholder data environment (CDE) and your current compliance posture. A gap assessment typically takes 2–4 weeks. A full QSA-led assessment can range from 4 weeks to several months depending on the complexity of your environment. We'll give you a realistic estimate after our initial consultation.
If your business stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data — or if you work with payment processors that do — PCI DSS requirements apply to you. This includes fintechs, neobanks, payment facilitators, and e-commerce businesses. Your acquirer (CBA, Westpac, NAB, ANZ, ASB, BNZ, Kiwibank) will also require you to demonstrate PCI DSS compliance. Book a discovery call to understand your specific obligations.
PCI DSS has four merchant levels determined by annual card transaction volume. Over 90% of Australian and New Zealand merchants are Level 4 (under 20,000 e-commerce transactions). Your level determines which validation you need — from a Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) for lower levels, to a full Report on Compliance (ROC) with a QSA for Level 1. We'll identify your level and exact requirements in your discovery call.
