Security Testing
Approved Scanning Vendor
Service Overview
PCI SSC Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV)
In order to be PCI DSS compliant, your organization must adhere to requirement 11.2: “Run internal and external network vulnerability scans at least quarterly and after any significant change in the network. Quarterly external scans must be performed by an Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV).”
We use comprehensive network scans to identify vulnerabilities in your organization’s environment and provide remediation assistance and recommendations to help you achieve your quarterly Attestation of Scanning Compliance. With thousands of approved scans under our belts, nobody is better qualified to help your organization through all aspects of PCI DSS compliance.
Whether you are completing a Level 1 Assessment with a third-party auditor or completing a Self-Assessment Questionnaire with your internal compliance team, the MegaplanIT scan portal will help you toward achieving your goal of PCI DSS compliance.
External Facing IPs
A MegaplanIT security consultant will begin by identifying all external facing IPs that are in scope for vulnerability scanning.
Scheduled Scans
Our consultant will coordinate with your team to schedule scanning activities. Your productivity is a priority, which is why we make sure our assessments never interfere with your organization’s workflow.
External ASV Scans
Once the external ASV scans are complete, the MegaplanIT consultant will review scan results internally to ensure accuracy. If any vulnerability exists, the MegaplanIT consultant will offer customized remediation consulting and perform retesting (if necessary).
Attestation of Scanning
Once your organization has passed the ASV scan, MegaplanIT will issue an Attestation of Scanning for submission to acquirers, processors, gateways, and other PCI stakeholders. We also provide detailed Technical Reports, including an Executive Summary, for your information and records.
HOW IT WORKS
The MegaPortal: Our PCI SSC Approved Scanning Service
We configure a custom PCI portal for your company to conduct ASV scans and generate your Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) report, if needed. Once the portal has been activated, a MegaplanIT security consultant will walk you through using the portal and provide you with recommendations for conducting and understanding the results of your first scan.
