PCI-DSS 4.0.1 Level 1

What is PCI-DSS, and what does it mean for you?

PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) is the global security standard every organisation that handles card data must meet. Level 1 is the most comprehensive level of assessment.

Tahsildar complies with the latest and strictest security protocols set by the global payments ecosystem. The certificate is independent auditors’ confirmation that our infrastructure is proactively protected against today’s and tomorrow’s cyber threats.

For your business

Four key benefits

  1. 01
    Customer trust and reputation

    Your customers want to know their card details are safe when they pay. Infrastructure built to international standards tells them “it’s safe to pay here” and protects your brand.

  2. 02
    Lower risk and KVKK compliance

    Storing and processing card data carries serious legal responsibility. We manage it all, from encryption to network security, so you can focus on growing your business.

  3. 03
    Business continuity

    PCI-DSS v4.0.1 assesses not only data security but also a system’s resilience. Our architecture is hardened against cyber attacks to help keep your payments running 24/7.

  4. 04
    Audited to global standards

    Our systems are regularly tested and validated by Qualified Security Assessors (QSA), keeping our infrastructure current, resilient and transparent.

Card data

Card details are protected from entry to the bank

The full 16-digit card number, expiry date and CVV are never stored in the clear on Tahsildar servers. Your panel only shows masked card details.

    Payment page on secure infrastructure

    Even when the payment page appears on your website, it runs on our PCI-DSS infrastructure; card data never reaches your systems.

  2. 02
    3D Secure verification

    Card transactions are verified through the issuing bank’s 3D Secure step.

  3. 03
    End-to-end encryption

    From the moment card data is entered until it reaches the bank, it travels through tunnels encrypted with 256-bit SSL.

  4. 04
    Masked records only

    Transaction records keep only the first 6 and last 4 digits of the card; card data is transmitted encrypted via licensed payment infrastructure.

Security first

Security is at the core of our technology

Built under the Pionr umbrella, Tahsildar applies a “security first” principle to every line of code, from its microservice architecture to its encryption algorithms.

  • End-to-end encryption

    Data travels over encrypted channels; card data is never exposed at any step.

  • Proactive threat monitoring

    Our systems are monitored 24/7, so potential threats are detected and blocked early.

  • Physical and digital access control

    Strict protocols govern who can access data, when and how.

  • Secure sessions and logs

    Platform sign-ins can be protected with two-factor authentication, and sign-in and access logs are kept in line with regulations.

Continuity

Redundant infrastructure, uninterrupted payments 24/7

B2B payments arrive at night, at weekends and at month-end. Our infrastructure is built to run without interruption, under the infrastructure and security controls PCI-DSS Level 1 requires.

The infrastructure controls PCI-DSS Level 1 requires, including microservice architecture, network security and protection against attacks, are applied across all our systems.

  • 24/7 monitoring and alerting

    Our systems are monitored 24/7; if anything unusual happens, our team is alerted automatically.

  • Automatic scaling at peak times

    At peak times such as month-end, campaigns and high season, the platform scales automatically with load and balances traffic.

  • Automatic failover between acquirers

    If a bank or payment institution has an issue, the payment fails over automatically to your backup acquirer. Payment Orchestration

  • Regular automated backups

    Data is backed up automatically at regular intervals.

  • Tested disaster recovery plan

    Our disaster recovery plan is tested regularly, so how service continues in any scenario is set out in advance.

Information security and personal data

Beyond card data, all your information is protected

ISO/IEC 27001
Information security management system

Our information security management follows the ISO/IEC 27001 standard. The confidentiality, integrity and availability of information assets are managed through a risk-based system that is reviewed regularly.
