PCI 3DS Core Security Standard
Part 2 Requirement P2-6: Cryptography and key management – PCI 3DS Core Security Standard

PCI 3DS Core Security Standard P2-6.1.5: P2-6.1.5 Keys managed securely through their whole lifecycle

Cryptographic keys are managed securely at every lifecycle stage: generation; distribution or conveyance; storage; set cryptoperiods; replacement or rotation when the cryptoperiod ends; escrow or backup; compromise and recovery; emergency destruction and replacement; and accountability and audit. The assessor examines key-management procedures, observes key-management activity and interviews personnel.
