Here’s the link to a webinar that NetSPI and CoreTrace are doing on April 8th.  So far we have a really good set of attendees and David Gianna, one of NetSPI’s senior consultants and QSAs, is going to be presenting on:

• Quick PCI overview, including the role of the PCI Security Standards Council and QSAs; the interrelationship of PCI-DSS, PA-DSS and PED; Merchant-Acquirer-QSA relationship; and the major PCI-DSS requirements
• Discussion of PCI compliance versus Information Security and the relationship between each
• Baseline view of the operational realities that make POS systems unique
• Review of the pros / cons of security solutions (e.g., blacklist-based antivirus, emergency security patches, application white-listing)
• Discussion of POS antivirus and file integrity monitoring requirements in POS systems; operational and deployment challenges; application whitelisting as compensating controls (Case Study)

Here’s the link to the registration and hope to see you there…
