How Can I Manage Cardholder Data Securely?

To manage cardholder data securely on Yativo, follow these best practices:

1. Use Secure API Requests
   Always use authenticated API requests over HTTPS to protect the transmission of cardholder data.

2. Do Not Store Sensitive Card Information
   Avoid storing sensitive card details like the full card number, CVV, or expiry date on your servers. Instead, use secure references (tokens) provided by the API.

3. Implement Data Encryption
   Encrypt any stored customer data, such as names and partial card details, using strong encryption algorithms.

4. Follow PCI DSS Compliance
   Adhere to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) guidelines for handling cardholder data securely.

5. Limit Data Access
   Restrict access to cardholder data only to authorized personnel and systems that require it for processing.

6. Monitor for Security Alerts
   Regularly monitor your system for any suspicious activity or unauthorized access to cardholder data.
