With respect to the PTS POI device hardware/firmware (HW/FW) combinations, at least one unique combination of PTS POI device HW and FW (Figure 3, Example #1 below) supported by the P2PE Product must be validated and functionally tested (as determined by the P2PE Standard requirements and associated testing procedures) from each PTS approval that is being associated with the P2PE Product assessment.
Where the FW is not monolithic (Figure 3, Example #2 below), i.e., it is split into separate FW functionality (e.g., OS, SRED, OP), every FW required for the device to function as intended must be validated and functionally tested (as determined by the P2PE Standard requirements and associated testing procedures).

Obtaining and maintaining PCI PTS HSM or FIPS 140 device approval is the responsibility of the secure cryptographic device vendor. The P2PE Assessor Company will request evidence of device approvals being in place and current as part of performing a P2PE Assessment, where applicable.
A Listed (not Expired) P2PE Product may undergo a Reassessment up to but not exceeding three years past the expiry date of any PCI-listed HSMs already included in the corresponding Listed P2PE Product. This will be checked as part of the Reassessment and submittal process to PCI SSC. As the Reassessment (provided it results in an updated P2PE Listing) has the potential to be valid for three years, this will allow P2PE Product Vendors to continue to use the expired HSMs for up to a total of six years after any associated PCI PTS HSM listings have expired, depending on their reassessment date.

3.7. Remote Assessments P2PE Assessors are expected to perform onsite assessments for P2PE Products, where applicable. While onsite assessments continue to be the expected method for PCI SSC assessments, the use of remote assessment methods may provide a suitable alternative in legitimate scenarios where an onsite assessment is not feasible. Refer to the PCI SSC Remote Assessments Guidelines and Procedures for details of remote assessment procedures and methods that may be used when an onsite assessment cannot be performed.
If remote assessment methods are used in place of an onsite assessment, the P2PE Assessor must complete the Addendum for ROC/ROV: Remote Assessments, as provided in Appendix A of the PCI SSC Remote Assessment Guidelines and Procedures document, for submission to PCI SSC along with the applicable P- ROV(s).

Refer to Section 4.2 for information regarding validation of Merchant-managed Solutions (MMS).
Refer to Section 2.1.4 to understand options for validating Third-Party Service Providers.
P2PE Application Assessments may only be performed by P2PE Application Assessor Companies.
1) The P2PE Vendor selects a P2PE Assessor Company from PCI SSC’s list of PCI Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE)® Assessors on the Website and negotiates the cost and other terms of the assessor engagement directly with the P2PE Assessor Company.
3) Refer to Section 2.1.4 Third-Party Service Providers in this document to understand options for validating P2PE Component functions and services provided by Third-Party Service Providers.

The P2PE Assessment process for P2PE Solutions managed by the merchant that uses that P2PE Solution (each a “Merchant-Managed P2PE Solution” or “MMS”) is initiated by the applicable merchant. The Website has all the associated documents needed to navigate the assessment process for MMS. The following is a high-level overview of the process:
1) The merchant selects a P2PE Assessor Company from PCI SSC’s list of PCI Point-to-Point Encryption (P2PE)® Assessors on the Website and negotiates the cost and other terms of the assessor engagement directly with the P2PE Assessor Company.
4) If the P2PE Assessor Company determines that the MMS is in accordance with the P2PE Standard and Program Requirements, the P2PE Assessor Company prepares and submits to the merchant a corresponding P2PE Merchant-Managed Solution P-ROV (and all additional P- ROVs as required for the P2PE Assessment) attesting to compliance and setting forth the results and observations of the P2PE Assessor …

4.4. P2PE Product Validation Required Documentation The P2PE Vendor and P2PE Assessor work together to account for all P2PE Assessment-related materials (such as, but not limited to, P-ROVs, P-AOV, the P2PE Instruction Manual (PIM), P2PE Application Implementation Guide (IG), the Vendor Release Agreement (VRA), and all other materials related to the P2PE Product assessment and participation in the P2PE Program). The P2PE Vendor does not submit any documentation directly to PCI SSC as part of a P2PE Assessment.
The scope of the P2PE Product assessment and validation effort. The use of Listed P2PE Components and/or Listed P2PE Applications can reduce the scope.
The greater the scope of the P2PE Product assessment, which usually requires additional P- ROVs to be used, will increase the review time of the P2PE Product submission.

4.6. P2PE Assessor Information By definition, a P2PE Application Assessor Company is also a P2PE Assessor Company.

If at any time prior to Acceptance of the Delta Change submission, including during the PCI SSC AQM review process, a P2PE Product being added as part of the Delta Change is expired or expires, the Delta Change submission will be rejected. Delta Changes to add P2PE Components/Applications to an existing Listed P2PE Solution or Listed P2PE Component without further assessment requires the P2PE Component/Application being added to be on the List of Validated P2PE Components or the List of Validated P2PE Applications, respectively.

As a Listed P2PE Product approaches its 3-year Reassessment date, PCI SSC will provide a courtesy notification to the P2PE Vendor via email notification of the pending expiration. However, it is the sole responsibility of the P2PE Vendor to initiate a Reassessment of their P2PE Product regardless of any such courtesy reminder(s). The P2PE Vendor can choose to perform a Reassessment, otherwise, the P2PE Product will become an Expired P2PE Product and move to the P2PE Expired Listings as described below.

PCI SSC’s Assessor Quality Management Team (“AQM”) reviews each P-ROV submission after the invoice for the P2PE Acceptance Fee has been paid by the P2PE Vendor. Administrative review will be performed in “pre-screening” to ensure that the submission is complete; then an AQM Analyst will review the submission in its entirety The AQM Analyst will review the P2PE submission first to determine whether the candidate P2PE Product is eligible for validation as described in the P2PE Program Guide. If there is question as to eligibility, the AQM Analyst will contact the P2PE Assessor Company for additional information. If the P2PE submission is determined to be ineligible for validation under the P2PE Program, the P-ROV will be rejected. The P2PE Assessor Company will receive a letter of rejection with optional instructions for appealing this rejection.
