The Sumo Logic Application for PCI Compliance

Strengthen PCI Posture with Real-Time Machine Data Intelligence

The PCI Challenge

The complex and evolving requirements of PCI DSS compliance create a myriad of challenges for IT teams in organizations that process, store or transmit credit and debit card information. As the systems that fall within the scope of PCI generate data at an exponential rate, the task of maintaining compliance requirements and protecting the business is becoming overwhelming. When combined with the increasing sophistication of attacks, it’s no wonder that IT struggles to reconcile these growing needs with existing solutions that don’t work. The end result is an expensive yet incomplete infrastructure that requires more manpower to manage and simply adds to the chaos.

Over the years, the PCI compliance standard has undergone substantial changes, and the unpredictable nature of compliance audits where auditors can request precise information related to an organization’s operations makes meeting all requirements an arduous task. Needless to say, this why traditional security solutions fail to deliver.

Simplify and Strengthen Compliance with Sumo Logic

The Sumo Logic application for PCI compliance is a natural addition to the company’s Enterprise Security Analytics solutions and helps organizations of any size meet the stringent PCI Data Security Standards. This new application combined with the power of the underlying Sumo Logic platform to detect anomalous events in real-time and reduce Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR) by turning logs into meaningful patterns helps organizations strengthen their security and compliance posture. Because the application for PCI compliance is included in the company’s enterprise edition service, organizations do not need to invest in additional point solutions.
