The QRC team headed by security consultant  Mr Devang Somani, and SecOps team, conducted thorough assessment of the entire card holder environment, completing the duly testing of the IT assets as per the PCI DSS requirements and scope defined in the early phase of engagement. The gaps recognized in the security posture were remediated with the continual coordination and support by the Flocash development team  (Nga Pham, Johnny Yifru)  that provided the essential necessary information and access to the environment.

Post maintenance and rigorous testing activities conducted over the environment and assets, and assertion on complete compliance, all the findings were documented in the standard RoC and AoC report format as per the defined PCI DSS documentation guideline.

“With advancing technology, payment systems have become increasingly vulnerable to both threats and vulnerabilities, making security a crucial factor for business operation. Being recertified by a prime security assessor like QRC, helps us offer a higher level of assurance to all our clients, making us part of the solution in the global response against payment security threats” says Sirak Mussie,  CEO of  Flocash.
