PCI ASV Services
PCI ASV Scanning through Strategic Alliance
Gaming Associates offers comprehensive PCI vulnerability scanning services to help organisations meet the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) external scanning requirements through its strategic alliance with Risk Associates, an PCI ASV and PCI QSA company.
Our ASV scanning services identify, analyse, and report vulnerabilities within internet-facing systems, ensuring your network remains secure and compliant with PCI DSS mandates.
What is PCI ASV Scanning?
PCI ASV scanning is an external vulnerability assessment required under the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
It involves conducting quarterly scans of internet-facing environments to identify, assess, and report vulnerabilities that could expose payment card data.
For iGaming platforms, this means validating that all public-facing servers, payment interfaces, and portals are secure against known threats, an essential step to maintaining regulator confidence and operational continuity.
PCI ASV Compliance Phases
Our structured approach ensures that your systems are continuously evaluated against PCI DSS requirements — supporting compliance readiness and maintaining trust in your payment and iGaming environments.
Assessment
- A detailed evaluation of your internet-facing infrastructure to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and potential exposure points that could compromise cardholder data.
Remediation
Collaborating with your internal teams to address identified vulnerabilities, apply necessary patches, and reinforce system security controls in preparation for validation.
Validation
Execution of formal ASV scans, conducted through Risk Associates, to verify that all vulnerabilities have been effectively mitigated and that your environment aligns with PCI DSS scanning requirements.
Maintenance
- Ongoing monitoring and quarterly re-assessments to ensure continued compliance and adaptability to emerging threats across your online payment and gaming platforms.
