Reducing compliance scope
On This Lesson 4 topics
This lesson is planned. The outline below lists the topics it will cover. The full lesson has not been published yet.
In this lesson
shrink the systems that fall under heavy rules.
Planned topics
- Tokenization: replace sensitive values with tokens so most systems never see the real data.
- Segmentation: isolate in-scope systems with strict boundaries and access.
- Use certified providers for the most regulated pieces, such as card capture.
- Fewer in-scope systems means less audit effort and less risk.
Draft outline details
Demonstration
a before/after diagram: card numbers flowing through twelve services, versus a hosted payment field that returns a token so only one small service is in scope.
