Pass SAQ A. Stop Magecart Attacks. Satisfy Your Merchant Bank.
The "Outsourcing" Myth.
Founders often think, "I use Stripe/Braintree, so I am PCI compliant."
Wrong.
Stripe handles the storage of the credit card numbers. But YOU handle the website that serves the payment form to the customer.
If a hacker compromises your website and installs a "skimmer" script (Magecart), they steal the credit card data before it ever reaches Stripe. Under PCI DSS v4.0, you are now legally required to monitor and secure those scripts.
If you cannot prove you have these policies in place, your merchant bank can freeze your funds, impose monthly non-compliance fines ($500+), and eventually blacklist you (MATCH List) from processing payments forever.
The Legal Attorney PCI-DSS Compliance Starter Kit is the governance bridge for startups. It provides the policies you need to complete the Self-Assessment Questionnaire A (SAQ A) with confidence.
What You Get Inside the Master File:
The PCI v4.0 Script Monitoring Protocol (Article IV)
Updated for the 2026-2027 enforcement of PCI v4.0.1, this section addresses the new Requirement 6.4.3 and 11.6.1 regarding the management of payment page scripts. It helps you document your "Script Inventory" to satisfy the auditor's newest demand.
The Firewall & Network Security Policy (Article II)
A robust definition of how you secure your cloud environment (AWS/GCP/Azure). Even if you don't host the database, you must prove you secure the admin access to the environment.
The "Sensitive Authentication Data" Ban (Article I)
Explicit prohibitions against storing CVV codes (CAV2/CVC2) or PINs. This is the #1 way merchants get fined. This policy creates the "Zero Tolerance" framework you need to train your support staff.
The Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) Mandate (Article VI)
Clear instructions on the quarterly scanning requirements. You cannot scan yourself; this policy establishes the requirement to use a certified ASV to generate your passing compliance certificates.
The Incident Response Plan - Card Data Edition (Exhibit A)
A specialized emergency checklist for credit card breaches. It tells you exactly who to call (Visa, Mastercard, Merchant Bank) and within what timeframe, preventing you from missing critical reporting deadlines.
Why SaaS & E-Commerce Founders Need This Specific Kit:
It Enables "SAQ A" Completion
The Self-Assessment Questionnaire asks: "Do you have a written Information Security Policy?" Without this document, you cannot legally check "Yes." This kit is that policy.
It Prepares You for Enterprise Deals
Large B2B buyers will ask for your PCI Attestation of Compliance (AoC). Having this policy suite allows you to sign that attestation without committing fraud.
It Protects You from "Script Skimming" Liability
By adopting the script monitoring protocols, you demonstrate "Due Care" against modern browser-based attacks, shielding your company from negligence claims in the event of a breach.

Frequently Asked Questions
I don't store credit card numbers. Do I need this?
YES. If you accept credit cards, you fall under PCI scope. The level of compliance is lower (SAQ A), but the requirement to have a security policy and secure your website remains mandatory.
What is the difference between SAQ A and SAQ D?
SAQ A is for merchants who outsource all card data functions (using iFrames/Redirects). SAQ D is for merchants who store card data. This kit is designed for the 99% of startups who qualify for SAQ A.
Does this software scan my website?
No. This is the Legal and Governance Framework. You still need to hire a technical vendor (ASV) to run the scan. This document provides the policy that mandates the scan, satisfying the auditor's paperwork requirement.
