Why weeks, not months

AI-assisted evidence review, one client portal

Every PCI DSS Compliance engagement runs on the Praxis-Q compliance platform. You upload evidence per control, AI scores it against the requirement, and your auditor reviews in the same workflow — from scoping through to the issued, publicly verifiable certificate.

AI evidence scoring

Every upload is scored against the control before an auditor sees it — gaps surface in minutes, not at the review meeting.

One client portal

Scoping, evidence, auditor queries and status live in one place. No email chains, no spreadsheet trackers.

Auditor sign-off

Praxis-Q auditors review inside the same workflow, so review rounds shrink and the certificate issues sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is PCI DSS critical for Hyderabad fintech startups?

Hyderabad's fintech ecosystem processes millions in daily card transactions. PCI DSS prevents data breaches that trigger CERT-In incident reporting, RBI penalties, and customer trust collapse. Non-compliance blocks payment network partnerships essential for scaling.

How does DPDP Act 2023 affect PCI DSS compliance?

DPDP 2023 mandates explicit cardholder consent for data processing and 72-hour breach notification. PCI DSS controls (encryption, access logging) satisfy DPDP's data minimization and security principles, reducing dual-audit effort.

What is Praxis-Q's fast-track delivery model?

We compress timelines via parallel workstreams, pre-built compliance templates, and direct relationships with local Hyderabad auditors and cloud providers. Most engagements reach ROC within 12–16 weeks vs. 6+ months industry average.

Does PCI DSS apply if we outsource payment processing to a Hyderabad PSP?

Yes. Even with outsourced processors, your organization remains liable for cardholder data handling. We validate third-party QSA attestations and ensure your Hyderabad operations meet residual compliance obligations under CERT-In scope.
