PCI Security Standards Council Bulletin: Technical FAQs for Secure Software Standard v1.x
Published

09 May 2023

The PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) has published the Technical Frequently Asked Questions
(Technical FAQs) for Secure Software Standard v1.x.

Technical FAQs are a mechanism for PCI SSC to provide additional clarification regarding the
interpretation and application of security and program requirements between revisions of a given PCI
security standard. Technical FAQs are an integral part of the Secure Software Standard and Program
and must be fully considered during a Secure Software Assessment.

This release of Technical FAQs is intended to address stakeholder inquiries regarding acceptable
methods for satisfying control objectives within the Secure Software Standard, and to announce an
extension to the deadline for Secure Software v1.1 submissions.

This document is now available in the Document Library of the PCI SSC website.
