This training is also encouraged for staff requiring practical knowledge of the elements of DES cryptography, approved key management methodologies and the secure management of secret encryption keys, as well as information security specialists responsible for ensuring compliance with the PCI PIN Security Requirements. Visa will provide updates to the PCI PED testing program, Visa's global TDES mandates and the new PCI Unattended Payment Terminal and PCI Hardware Security Module Requirements.
