PCI DSS 4.0 represents a significant change in how organizations and service providers approach compliance. It is more than an update to requirements. It is a philosophical shift that emphasizes continuous, risk-based security instead of point-in-time validation. In this joint session, LimaCharlie, ControlCase, and author Branden R. Williams explore how to navigate this new era of PCI compliance. Branden explains what has changed in PCI DSS 4.0, why those changes were made, and how they reflect a new mindset toward continuous assurance and flexibility.
