PCI DSS, without the annual scramble.
PCI DSS requires proof that changes to systems handling cardholder data followed secure, controlled procedures. CDK generates that proof on every change, not just before your assessment.
Where CDK evidence applies.
PCI DSS v4.0 organizes its 12 requirements into six goals. CDK's delivery evidence speaks directly to four requirement areas.
Access Control
Evidence that access to cardholder data environments was authorized and controlled.
Secure Systems & Software
Proof that changes to in-scope systems followed established, secure procedures.
Logging & Monitoring
A continuous audit trail of activity — not a sampled snapshot during assessment.
Compliance Validation
Independently verifiable evidence for QSA assessments and SAQs alike.
What assessors actually ask for.
- 7.2.1
- Access Control Model. Every approval and deployment is tied to a verified identity.
- 6.5.1
- Change Management. Every production change is linked to its approval, policy evaluation, and deployment record.
- 10.2.1
- Audit Logging. Evidence is generated continuously, not reconstructed during the assessment window.
