The Regulations in Brief
Rules published in relation to the handling of payment card details as set out as part of the
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS).
“Under the current rules it is a violation of the PCI DSS requirement to store any sensitive
authentication data, including card validation codes and values, after authorization even if encrypted.
It is therefore prohibited to use any form of digital audio recording (using formats such as wav, mp3 etc.)
for storing CAV2, CVC2, CVV2 or CID codes after authorization if that data can be queried; recognizing that
multiple tools exist that potentially could query a variety of digital recordings.
Where technology exists to prevent recording of these data elements, such technology should be enabled.”
To put it simply, the 3 digit code on the back of the card should not be recorded.
