PCI Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) Services

Handling cardholder data comes with serious responsibility—and strict compliance requirements. At WestNet Consulting Services, we are certified PCI Qualified Security Assessors (QSA), helping businesses of all sizes achieve and maintain PCI DSS compliance with confidence. Our team guides you through every stage, from readiness assessments to full compliance reporting, ensuring your systems and processes meet industry standards.

 

A Proven Path to Compliance

Your journey to PCI compliance typically begins with a GAP Analysis. During this assessment, we identify missing security controls, misconfigurations, or policy gaps and provide clear remediation steps. Once remediation is complete, our assessors conduct the official PCI DSS Assessment, producing a Report on Compliance (ROC) for submission to your acquiring bank. But compliance doesn’t end there—ongoing monitoring, patching, and regular vulnerability testing are essential to staying compliant year after year.

 

More Than a Once-a-Year Audit

At WestNet, we don’t just “check the box.” We aim to be a long-term partner to your organization. Our QSA consultants can remain engaged year-round, advising your IT and leadership teams during key changes to your systems or processes. By building an ongoing relationship, we help ensure compliance becomes part of your security culture, not just an annual audit exercise.

 

Preparing for Your Initial Assessment

To streamline your PCI journey, it helps to have certain items ready before your first assessment. These may include:

• Network and data flow diagrams

• IT and security policies and procedures

• External and internal vulnerability scan results

• Details of point-of-sale (POS) software and versions

• List of custom applications, including web and mobile

If you need support developing or collecting this documentation, our team is ready to assist.
