Req 3: Protect Stored Account Data

PCI DSS 4.0 3.3.1.2: 3.3.1.2 Card verification code not retained after authorization

The card verification code must not be kept after authorization is complete. Applicability: this means the 3- or 4-digit number printed on either face of a card and used to validate card-not-present transactions. Guidance advises that codes captured on paper before authorization should be erased or covered afterwards (for example cut out, or blacked out with an opaque marker that cannot be removed) and lists the data sources to check: incoming transaction data, all logs, history and trace files, database schemas, database and data store contents, and memory or crash dumps. Customized approach objective: none, this requirement cannot be met through the customized approach.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 4 controls across 3 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

SOC 2 · 2 controls

  • SOC2-C1.2 C1.2 Disposing of confidential information
  • SOC2-P4.3 P4.3 Securely disposing of personal information

ISO 27001:2022 · 1 control

  • 8.10 Information deletion

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.

Other controls in Req 3: Protect Stored Account Data

You are reading one control. How much of PCI DSS 4.0 have you already done?

PCI DSS 4.0 3.3.1.2 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of PCI DSS 4.0 your existing evidence covers. Hold ISO 27001:2022 and 139 of 280 PCI DSS 4.0 controls already carry evidence.

Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 415 were rejected on the ISO 27001:2022 pair alone.
