The story
Three people, both sides of the assessment table, and a gap that would not close by itself.
Before
Both sides of the table
Years spent assessing companies against PCI DSS — and being assessed. The standard was clear.
The gap
Clear standard, no tooling
Spreadsheets, shared drives and quarterly panic. Evidence lived everywhere except where the auditor looked.
