Consumers face a greater risk of losing control of their data when
doing business with smaller retailers, as many haven't made
investments to comply with the Payment Card Industry's Data Security
Standard (PCI DSS), according to a new survey.

The survey, which covered 560 U.S. and multinational organizations,
asked respondents a variety of questions about their investments and
deployment of technology to comply with PCI DSS, which was introduced
in 2005. It's an industry standard created by major credit card
companies that's designed to protect customer payment data.

The survey found that 55 percent of organizations only secured credit
card information but not other data such as Social Security and
driver's license numbers or bank account details. Also, only 28
percent of smaller companies between 501 to 1,000 employees comply
with PCI DSS. That compares with more than 70 percent of large
merchants with 75,000 or more employees that claimed they're
compliant.
