Frequently Asked Questions

What is a PCI DSS compliance checklist?

A PCI compliance checklist is a comprehensive list of all controls required for your specific SAQ type. It maps each control to the PCI DSS requirement, evidence needed, and implementation steps. GRCTrack's checklist generator creates a personalised checklist based on your SAQ type.

How many controls are in PCI DSS SAQ A?

SAQ A contains approximately 22 controls focused on outsourced payment security, including policies, provider management, and personnel awareness. It applies to merchants who fully outsource payment processing to PCI-validated third parties.

How many controls are in PCI DSS SAQ D?

SAQ D for merchants contains 300+ controls covering all 12 PCI DSS requirements. SAQ D for service providers has additional requirements. This is the most comprehensive SAQ type, applying to organisations that store, process, or transmit cardholder data.

Can I skip PCI DSS controls?

Controls can be marked as not applicable (N/A) only if they genuinely do not apply to your environment. You must document and justify each N/A control. Alternatively, PCI DSS v4.0.1 allows compensating controls via the customised approach with documented risk analysis.
