PCI Security Standards Council announced changes to its Qualified Integrators and Resellers Program. The changes are designed to help smaller merchants prevent payment card data breaches. PCI SSC hopes that more individuals will be certified as QIRs who can advise merchants on payment security. Some security experts say the changes are a good move, but others contend the changes should have happened years ago at the height of retailer card data breach threats. Some payment security experts, however, argue that changes are coming too late to have much impact.”]
