PCI DSS License Worldwide

PCI DSS worldwide: usd AG one of 17 QSA companies with global accreditation

24. January 2025

usd AG has once again received all the necessary licenses from the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) as a PCI DSS Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) in order to continue to carry out PCI DSS Audits worldwide. This makes us one of only 17 QSA companies with global coverage.

„As an accredited assessor, we have been supporting our clients by conducting audits in accordance with all relevant Payment Card Industry standards for over 20 years. In an increasingly interconnected world in which companies are merging and operating internationally, it goes without saying that we also support them across national borders when it comes to payment security.“

Torsten Schlotmann, Head of PCI Security of usd AG
