What challenges can we face in PCI scanning?

There can be a few challenges in the scanning process like identifying all systems and networks that are covered by PCI DSS, deciding the assessment’s scope accurately, and managing the vulnerabilities identified.

What is the ideal PCI DSS vulnerability scan frequency?

The frequency of PCI risk assessment has been clearly defined by the standard. It recommends that security scans must be performed in a gap of three months at the minimum. So, it requires scanning every quarter.

How much does a PCI vulnerability scan cost?

It depends on several factors such as the scope, complexity of the systems, and more. However, the cost of PCI vulnerability scanning ranges between $100 - $500.
