# PCI Compliance
Master PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) compliance for secure payment processing and handling of cardholder data.
## When to Use This Skill
- Building payment processing systems
- Handling credit card information
- Implementing secure payment flows
- Conducting PCI compliance audits
- Reducing PCI compliance scope
- Implementing tokenization and encryption
- Preparing for PCI DSS assessments
## PCI DSS Requirements (12 Core Requirements)
### Build and Maintain Secure Network
1. Install and maintain firewall configuration
2. Don't use vendor-supplied defaults for passwords
### Protect Cardholder Data
3. Protect stored cardholder data
4. Encrypt transmission of cardholder data across public networks
### Maintain Vulnerability Management
5. Protect systems against malware
6. Develop and maintain secure systems and applications
### Implement Strong Access Control
7. Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know
8. Identify and authenticate access to system components
9. Restrict physical access to cardholder data
### Monitor and Test Networks
10. Track and monitor all access to network resources and cardholder data
11. Regularly test security systems and processes
### Maintain Information Security Policy
12. Maintain a policy that addresses information security
## Compliance Levels
**Level 1**: > 6 million transactions/year (annual ROC required)
**Level 2**: 1-6 million transactions/year (annual SAQ)
**Level 3**: 20,000-1 million e-commerce transactions/year
**Level 4**: < 20,000 e-commerce or < 1 million total transactions
## Data Minimization (Never Store)
```python
# NEVER STORE THESE
PROHIBITED_DATA = {
'full_track_data': 'Magnetic stripe data',
'cvv': 'Card verification code/value',
'pin': 'PIN or PIN block'
}
# CAN STORE (if encrypted)
ALLOWED_DATA = {
'pan': 'Primary Account Number (card number)',
'cardholder_name': 'Name on card',
'expiration_date': 'Card expiration',
'service_code': 'Service code'
}
class PaymentData:
"""Safe payment data handling."""
def __init__(self):
self.prohibited_fields = ['cvv', 'cvv2', 'cvc', 'pin']
def sanitize_log(self, data):
"""Remove sensitive data from logs."""
sanitized = data.copy()
# Mask PAN
if 'card_number' in sanitized:
card = sanitized['card_number']
sanitized['card_number'] = f"{card[:6]}{'*' * (len(card) - 10)}{card[-4:]}"
# Remove prohibited data
for field in self.prohibited_fields:
sanitized.pop(field, None)
return sanitized
def validate_no_prohibited_storage(self, data):
"""Ensure no prohibited data is being stored."""
for field in self.prohibited_fields:
if field in data:
raise SecurityError(f"Attempting to store prohibited field: {field}")
```
## Tokenization
### Using Payment Processor Tokens
```python
import stripe
class TokenizedPayment:
"""Handle payments using tokens (no card data on server)."""
@staticmethod
def create_payment_method_token(card_details):
"""Create token from card details (client-side only)."""
# THIS SHOULD ONLY BE DONE CLIENT-SIDE WITH STRIPE.JS
# NEVER send card details to your server
"""
// Frontend JavaScript
const stripe = Stripe('pk_...');
const {token, error} = await stripe.createToken({
card: {
number: '4242424242424242',
exp_month: 12,
exp_year: 2024,
cvc: '123'
}
});
// Send token.id to server (NOT card details)
"""
pass
@staticmethod
def charge_with_token(token_id, amount):
"""Charge using token (server-side)."""
# Your server only sees the token, never the card number
stripe.api_key = "sk_..."
charge = stripe.Charge.create(
amount=amount,
currency="usd",
source=token_id, # Token instead of card details
description="Payment"
)
return charge
@staticmethod
def store_payment_method(customer_id, payment_method_token):
"""Store payment method as token for future use."""
stripe.Customer.modify(
customer_id,
source=payment_method_token
)
# Store only customer_id and payment_method_id in your database
# NEVER store actual card details
return {
'customer_id': customer_id,
'has_payment_method': True
# DO NOT store: card number, CVV, etc.
}
```
### Custom Tokenization (Advanced)
```python
import secrets
from cryptography.fernet import Fernet
class TokenVault:
"""Secure token vault for card data (if you must store it)."""
def __init__(self, encryption_key):
self.cipher = Fernet(encryption_key)
self.vault = {} # In production: use encrypted database
def tokenize(self, card_data):
"""Convert card data to token."""
# Generate secure random token
token = secrets.token_urlsafe(32)
# Encrypt card data
encrypted = self.cipher.encrypt(json.dumps(card_data).encode())
# Store token -> encrypted data mapping
self.vault[token] = encrypted
return token
def detokenize(self, token):
"""Retrieve card data from token."""
encrypted = self.vault.get(token)
if not encrypted:
raise ValueError("Token not found")
# Decrypt
decrypted = self.cipher.decrypt(encrypted)
return json.loads(decrypted.decode())
def delete_token(self, token):
"""Remove token from vault."""
self.vault.pop(token, None)
```
## Encryption
### Data at Rest
```python
from cryptography.hazmat.primitives.ciphers.aead import AESGCM
import os
class EncryptedStorage:
"""Encrypt data at rest using AES-256-GCM."""
def __init__(self, encryption_key):
"""Initialize with 256-bit key."""
self.key = encryption_key # Must be 32 bytes
def encrypt(self, plaintext):
"""Encrypt data."""
# Generate random nonce
nonce = os.urandom(12)
# Encrypt
aesgcm = AESGCM(self.key)
ciphertext = aesgcm.encrypt(nonce, plaintext.encode(), None)
# Return nonce + ciphertext
return nonce + ciphertext
def decrypt(self, encrypted_data):
"""Decrypt data."""
# Extract nonce and ciphertext
nonce = encrypted_data[:12]
ciphertext = encrypted_data[12:]
# Decrypt
aesgcm = AESGCM(self.key)
plaintext = aesgcm.decrypt(nonce, ciphertext, None)
return plaintext.decode()
# Usage
storage = EncryptedStorage(os.urandom(32))
encrypted_pan = storage.encrypt("4242424242424242")
# Store encrypted_pan in database
```
### Data in Transit
```python
# Always use TLS 1.2 or higher
# Flask/Django example
app.config['SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE'] = True # HTTPS only
app.config['SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY'] = True
app.config['SESSION_COOKIE_SAMESITE'] = 'Strict'
# Enforce HTTPS
from flask_talisman import Talisman
Talisman(app, force_https=True)
```
## Access Control
```python
from functools import wraps
from flask import session
def require_pci_access(f):
"""Decorator to restrict access to cardholder data."""
@wraps(f)
def decorated_function(*args, **kwargs):
user = session.get('user')
# Check if user has PCI access role
if not user or 'pci_access' not in user.get('roles', []):
return {'error': 'Unauthorized access to cardholder data'}, 403
# Log access attempt
audit_log(
user=user['id'],
action='access_cardholder_data',
resource=f.__name__
)
return f(*args, **kwargs)
return decorated_function
@app.route('/api/payment-methods')
@require_pci_access
def get_payment_methods():
"""Retrieve payment methods (restricted access)."""
# Only accessible to users with pci_access role
pass
```
## Audit Logging
```python
import logging
from datetime import datetime
class PCIAuditLogger:
"""PCI-compliant audit logging."""
def __init__(self):
self.logger = logging.getLogger('pci_audit')
# Configure to write to secure, append-only log
def log_access(self, user_id, resource, action, result):
"""Log access to cardholder data."""
entry = {
'timestamp': datetime.utcnow().isoformat(),
'user_id': user_id,
'resource': resource,
'action': action,
'result': result,
'ip_address': request.remote_addr
}
self.logger.info(json.dumps(entry))
def log_authentication(self, user_id, success, method):
"""Log authentication attempt."""
entry = {
'timestamp': datetime.utcnow().isoformat(),
'user_id': user_id,
'event': 'authentication',
'success': success,
'method': method,
'ip_address': request.remote_addr
}
self.logger.info(json.dumps(entry))
# Usage
audit = PCIAuditLogger()
audit.log_access(user_id=123, resource='payment_methods', action='read', result='success')
```
## Security Best Practices
### Input Validation
```python
import re
def validate_card_number(card_number):
"""Validate card number format (Luhn algorithm)."""
# Remove spaces and dashes
card_number = re.sub(r'[\s-]', '', card_number)
# Check if all digits
if not card_number.isdigit():
return False
# Luhn algorithm
def luhn_checksum(card_num):
def digits_of(n):
return [int(d) for d in str(n)]
digits = digits_of(card_num)
odd_digits = digits[-1::-2]
even_digits = digits[-2::-2]
checksum = sum(odd_digits)
for d in even_digits:
checksum += sum(digits_of(d * 2))
return checksum % 10
return luhn_checksum(card_number) == 0
def sanitize_input(user_input):
"""Sanitize user input to prevent injection."""
# Remove special characters
# Validate against expected format
# Escape for database queries
pass
```

## Common Violations
1. **Storing CVV**: Never store card verification codes
2. **Unencrypted PAN**: Card numbers must be encrypted at rest
3. **Weak Encryption**: Use AES-256 or equivalent
4. **No Access Controls**: Restrict who can access cardholder data
5. **Missing Audit Logs**: Must log all access to payment data
6. **Insecure Transmission**: Always use TLS 1.2+
7. **Default Passwords**: Change all default credentials
8. **No Security Testing**: Regular penetration testing required
## Reducing PCI Scope
1. **Use Hosted Payments**: Stripe Checkout, PayPal, etc.
2. **Tokenization**: Replace card data with tokens
3. **Network Segmentation**: Isolate cardholder data environment
4. **Outsource**: Use PCI-compliant payment processors
5. **No Storage**: Never store full card details
By minimizing systems that touch card data, you reduce compliance burden significantly.
