Hello all,

does anybody know, if ADABAS does comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard?

Best Regards

PCI DSS raises a number of requirements, as far as I can see, there’s none of the “storage related” ones Adabas wouldn’t comply with.

But, to “fully comply”, you would have to use Adabas ciphering (requirement 3 asks for encryption)
