Latest Updates

PCI Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) v4.0

We created a brand new framework to represent PCI DSS v4.0! Existing PCI DSS v3.2.1 personnels (who are admins in Drata) can activate PCI DSS v4.0 on the Frameworks page. If you are new and would like to enable PCI DSS v4.0, reach out to the CS team!

Once you activate version 4.0 of the framework, you can expect the following:

• 57 new DCF controls enabled in your account, 260 DCF controls mapped in total. If you have our Risk Management module, 3 of the new DCFs are also mapped to risks.

• 15 policy templates have been updated.

• 2 new policy templates have been added: PCI DSS Compliance Policy, Logging and Monitoring Policy.

• The Network Security Policy already available in Drata has been mapped to the PCI DSS v4.0 framework.
