The 2025 PCI SSC North America Community Meeting brings together some of the brightest minds in payments security, compliance, and risk management. This year, Factor Cybersecurity is proud to be part of the conversation highlighting how artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the way PCI-covered entities approach compliance, attestation, and continuous security.
Why AI Matters for PCI Entities Today
PCI DSS has always been about protecting cardholder data, but the complexity of today’s payment ecosystems makes it increasingly difficult for organizations to keep up. Traditional point-in-time assessments are no longer enough. Threat actors move fast, and compliance controls must be validated continuously.
That is where AI-powered assessments come in. Continuous monitoring automates evidence collection and validation across networks, endpoints, and cloud environments. Smarter risk detection identifies gaps, misconfigurations, and potential exposures before they become audit findings. Efficiency at scale reduces the manual burden on compliance teams while giving leadership real-time visibility into their security posture. AI doesn’t just make PCI compliance easier. It elevates compliance into a proactive cybersecurity capability.
Getting Ahead of the Curve with Factor
Factor Cybersecurity helps PCI-covered entities and service providers move beyond reactive, annual assessments. With Factor’s continuous assessment and attestation model, organizations can stay audit-ready year-round, not just at assessment time. They can prove compliance with evidence-driven, automated attestation, reduce both the time and cost of PCI validation, and align compliance controls with real-world cybersecurity resilience. By integrating AI into compliance workflows, Factor enables organizations to close the gap between being compliant and being secure.
