TrollEye Security

PCI Solution

PCI DSS SECURITY & COMPLIANCE

Continuously Secure the Environment Behind PCI DSS Compliance.

Identify vulnerabilities across the cardholder data environment, validate security controls, support penetration testing, prioritize remediation, and verify that identified weaknesses are actually resolved.

WHERE TROLLEYE FITS

PCI DSS Defines the Requirements. TrollEye Helps Operationalize the Security Behind Them.

PCI DSS establishes requirements for protecting payment account data and securing the cardholder data environment (CDE). Meeting those requirements requires ongoing vulnerability management, access control, monitoring, security testing, remediation, and verification.

TrollEye helps security teams continuously assess, test, validate, remediate, and document technical security across the systems, applications, identities, and infrastructure supporting their PCI DSS program.

PCI DSS

Technical Requirements We Help Support

TrollEye supports security activities across several PCI DSS requirements without replacing your QSA, assessment process, or broader compliance program.

1
Network Security Controls Identify exposed services, insecure network configurations, attack paths, and weaknesses affecting network security controls.
2
Secure Configurations Identify misconfigurations, insecure settings, unnecessary exposure, and configuration weaknesses.
6
Secure Systems & Software Identify and validate vulnerabilities across applications, APIs, software, and supporting infrastructure.
7–8
Access & Identity Security Identify excessive permissions, exposed credentials, authentication weaknesses, and access-control risk.
9
Physical Access Security Test physical security controls and identify weaknesses that could enable unauthorized physical access.
10
Logging & Monitoring Assess monitoring coverage, identify visibility gaps, and support continuous security monitoring.
11
Security Testing Perform automated and human-led testing, penetration testing, adversarial testing, and retesting.
12
Security Program Support Maintain findings, testing history, ownership, remediation activity, and verification evidence.

Continuously Operate and Validate PCI Security

Turn PCI DSS technical requirements into ongoing security workflows across the CDE and connected systems.

Discover Identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, exposed services, identity weaknesses, attack paths, and other exposures affecting the PCI environment.
Prioritize Use exploitability, asset context, threat intelligence, attack paths, and business criticality to focus remediation on exposures that create meaningful risk.
Validate Validate exploitability and control effectiveness through automated testing, human-led penetration testing, adversarial testing, and physical penetration testing where applicable.
Remediate Group related exposures, identify root causes, assign ownership, and coordinate corrective action with the teams responsible for remediation.
Verify Retest completed fixes to confirm vulnerabilities and security weaknesses were actually addressed and associated risk was reduced.
Document Maintain a continuous history of findings, testing, ownership, remediation, and verification activity to support PCI security and assessment efforts.
THE GOAL Maintain PCI security continuously, not just when an assessment is approaching.

TrollEye complements the PCI DSS compliance process by helping security and technology teams continuously identify, test, remediate, and verify technical risk across the environment supporting payment operations.

PCI DSS SECURITY CAPABILITIES

Security Capabilities That Support PCI DSS.

From network and configuration exposure to identity risk, penetration testing, physical security testing, remediation, and retesting, TrollEye combines platform capabilities and expert services to support the technical security work behind PCI DSS.

CONTINUOUS EXPOSURE MANAGEMENT

Exposure & Configuration Management

Continuously identify vulnerabilities, insecure configurations, exposed services, unnecessary attack surface, network weaknesses, and other exposures affecting systems in or connected to the cardholder data environment.

Supports Requirements 1, 2 & 6
SECURITY TESTING

Automated & Human Security Testing

Combine automated validation with human-led penetration testing and adversarial testing to identify exploitable weaknesses, evaluate technical controls, and test the real-world security of applications, networks, infrastructure, and connected systems.

Supports Requirement 11
PHYSICAL SECURITY

Physical Security Testing

Test physical security controls and identify weaknesses that could allow unauthorized access to offices, facilities, systems, or other sensitive environments supporting payment operations.

Supports Requirement 9
IDENTITY & ACCESS EXPOSURE

CDE Access & Identity Exposure

Identify excessive permissions, exposed credentials, authentication weaknesses, risky identity relationships, and access paths that could increase exposure to cardholder data or systems within the CDE.

Supports Requirements 7 & 8
RISK-BASED REMEDIATION

Prioritization & Remediation Workflows

Prioritize PCI-relevant findings using exploitability, asset criticality, business context, threat intelligence, attack paths, and compensating controls, then route work to responsible teams and group related exposures into remediation initiatives around shared root causes.

Prioritize & Drive Corrective Action
RETESTING & VERIFICATION

Retesting & Remediation Verification

Retest completed fixes to confirm identified vulnerabilities and security weaknesses were actually addressed, verify that associated risk was reduced, and maintain a continuous history of findings, testing, ownership, remediation, and validation activity.

PCI DSS FAQ

Questions About PCI DSS

How TrollEye helps teams continuously manage technical exposure around payment environments while supporting—not replacing—the formal PCI DSS validation process.

01 How does TrollEye support PCI DSS compliance?

TrollEye helps organizations continuously identify and reduce technical exposures that can affect systems within or connected to the cardholder data environment. The platform supports discovery, prioritization, validation, remediation workflows, and verification.

02 Does TrollEye replace a PCI DSS assessment or Qualified Security Assessor?

No. TrollEye does not replace the formal PCI DSS validation process or a Qualified Security Assessor when one is required. It supports the security work that helps teams identify and address exposure throughout the year.

03 Can TrollEye help prioritize vulnerabilities affecting payment environments?

Yes. TrollEye can add context such as exploitability, attack paths, asset criticality, compensating controls, threat intelligence, and ownership so teams can make better remediation decisions than severity alone provides.

04 How does TrollEye help us verify remediation?

Teams can track remediation through ownership and workflows, then retest fixes to verify that the underlying exposure was actually resolved. Exposure history provides a record of the issue and its remediation status over time.

05 Can TrollEye help us manage PCI-related security continuously instead of only around an assessment?

Yes. TrollEye is designed around continuous exposure management, allowing teams to discover changes, prioritize risk, coordinate remediation, and verify improvement as the environment evolves.
