PCI compliance

See when I hear the three character word PCI, I immediately thought of Peripheral Component Interconnect, a local bus standard developed by Intel Corporation.  Most modern PCs include a PCI bus in addition to a more general ISA expansion bus. PCI is also used on newer versions of the Macintosh computer.  But I am wrong the other PCI stands for Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, which is a system which protects people's debit and credit card information while they shop and buy bills on the Internet.

If you are looking for a fast PCI compliance services then I would try some of the on-line websites, because it might cost more to do it on-line apart from some websites that offer it for FREE, like it does for university (Open University), but it happens and you get the certificate in a lot less time then you would if you did it at a college or university about 60 days. I am not sure what or when I would use it but I am pretty sure if I need to know it then it will be in my university course over the next two years.
