PCI DSS v4.0 gap assessment
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) v4.0 is the mandatory control framework for any organisation that stores, processes or transmits cardholder data, maintained by the PCI Security Standards Council.
Assess cardholder-data security against the PCI DSS v4.0 requirements and SAQ scope.
What it covers
Inside a PCI DSS v4.0 assessment.
Celeredge assesses cardholder-data environment scope, the twelve PCI DSS requirements and the applicable SAQ, and surfaces the control gaps to close ahead of a QSA assessment or self-assessment.
- Scored on PCI DSS v4.0's own scale — not a generic rubric
- Every score traceable to the client's own evidence
- Gaps ranked by severity, ready to become the plan
- A board-ready slide deck and detailed report, generated automatically
How it works
From the client's documents to a board-ready deck.
1 · Evidence in
Upload the client's documents — policies, reports, data. An AI interviewer asks targeted follow-ups to fill anything missing.
2 · Scored on the standard
Every dimension is scored on the framework's own scale, with each score traceable to the evidence behind it — gaps ranked by severity.
3 · Board-ready out
A board-ready slide deck and HTML report are generated automatically — executive summary, maturity landscape and a sequenced plan.
