PCI DSS 4.0
Req 9: Restrict Physical Access

PCI DSS 4.0 9.3.1.1: 9.3.1.1 Personnel access to sensitive areas controlled

Physical entry by personnel into CDE sensitive areas must be controlled so that: access is approved and tied to the person's job function; access ends at once when the person leaves; and every physical access mechanism (keys, access cards and the like) is disabled or handed back on departure. The guidance adds that, where possible, policies and procedures should have these items disabled or collected as early as practicable when someone leaves. Applicability: all entities with sensitive areas inside the CDE. Objective under the customized approach: personnel without authorization are unable to reach sensitive areas.

Other controls in Req 9: Restrict Physical Access

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

PCI DSS 4.0 9.3.1.1 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.
