Can this skill help prepare for a PCI DSS audit?

Yes, it includes a comprehensive checklist of the 12 core requirements and provides standardized audit logging patterns necessary for meeting compliance assessments.

Does this skill work with specific payment processors?

While it includes specific examples for popular providers like Stripe, the underlying encryption principles, input validation, and security protocols are applicable to any payment gateway.

How does it handle prohibited data like CVV or PIN numbers?

The skill includes logic for data minimization that identifies prohibited fields and ensures they are sanitized from logs and prevented from entering your storage systems.

How does this skill help reduce PCI compliance scope?

It provides implementation patterns for tokenization and hosted payment pages that ensure sensitive card data never touches your servers, allowing you to qualify for simpler assessments like SAQ A.
