Data Discovery and PCI DSSBy Kishor Vaswani, CEO - ControlCase

Agenda

• About Data Discovery

• PCI DSS Requirements and need for Data Discovery in

the context of PCI DSS

• Challenges in the Data Discovery space

• Live Demo of ControlCase Data Discovery

• Q&A

1

About Data Discovery

Current Technology Environment

• Servers – Windows, Unix etc.• Databases – SQL Server, Oracle etc.• Email• File systems

2

What is Data Discovery

• Ability to identify and pinpoint sensitive data across› File Shares› Servers› Databases› Email› Log files› Etc.

3

Why is it important

• GRC focuses on confidentiality, integrity and availability

• Confidentiality is always focused on “Data”• Data that is sensitive must be protected, however

the first step of that is to know where the data resides

• Hence, it is important to identify where sensitive data resides

PCI DSS Requirements and Data Discovery

What is PCI DSS?

Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard:

• Guidelines for securely processing, storing, or transmitting payment card account data

• Established by leading payment card issuers• Maintained by the PCI Security Standards Council

(PCI SSC)

5

PCI DSS RequirementsControl Objectives Requirements

Build and maintain a secure network 1. Install and maintain a firewall configuration to protect cardholder data

2. Do not use vendor-supplied defaults for system passwords and other security parameters

Protect cardholder data 3. Protect stored cardholder data4. Encrypt transmission of cardholder data across open, public

networks

Maintain a vulnerability management program

5. Use and regularly update anti-virus software on all systems commonly affected by malware

6. Develop and maintain secure systems and applications

Implement strong access control measures

7. Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know8. Assign a unique ID to each person with computer access9. Restrict physical access to cardholder data

Regularly monitor and test networks 10. Track and monitor all access to network resources and cardholder data

11. Regularly test security systems and processes

Maintain an information security policy

12. Maintain a policy that addresses information security

6

Requirement 3: Protect Stored Cardholder Data

You must ensure stored data is encrypted and protected.

PCI Council Advisory…

• Importance of Updating Scope for PCI DSS Assessments

There have been a number of high profile data compromises in the press recently. These reports serve as a daily reminder of the damage caused by compromises and of the need to keep business environments secure. Businesses evolve and change over time, and the scope of an entity's cardholder data environment must be reviewed and verified each time a PCI DSS assessment is undertaken. As has always been the case, many compromises are the result of businesses having data they weren't aware of. Please remember that scoping an assessment includes verifying that no cardholder data exists outside of the defined cardholder data environment. By ensuring the scope of an assessment is appropriate, the risk of data compromise is greatly reduced - a benefit to everyone involved.

Challenges in Data Discovery

Challenges

• Deployment and agents› Can get expensive› Technologically complicated› Long deployment cycles› Databases are a challenge

• False Positives› Luhn’s formula narrows down but is not full proof› Many schemes use Luhn’s formula to generate numbers› Separators and delimiters change

9

Challenges

• Performance within production environments› Database load› Large number of records in databases› Active directory scanning› Emails storing cardholder data

• Tokenization› Differentiation between tokens and real card numbers

• Exclusions› Directories› Files› Extension types› Tables/Columns

10

Features to look for – Agentless/Credential Based

11

Features to look for – Database Search Capability

12

Features to look for – Remediation support

13

Features to look for – Delimiter definition

14

Features to look for – Performance tuning

15

Features to look for – Token exclusion capability

16

Features to look for – File/Directory Exclusion
