Topic #: 1
An entity wants to know if the Software Security Framework can be leveraged during their assessment. Which of the following software types would this apply to?
Software Security Framework Overview
PCI SSC's Software Security Framework (SSF) encompasses Secure Software Standard and Secure Software Lifecycle (Secure SLC) Standard.
Software developed under the Secure SLC Standard adheres to security-by-design principles and can leverage the SSF during PCI DSS assessments.
Applicability
The framework is primarily for software developed by entities or third parties adhering to PCI SSC standards.
It does not apply to legacy payment software listed under PA-DSS unless migrated to SSF.
Incorrect Options
Option A: Not all payment software qualifies; it must align with SSF requirements.
Option B: PCI PTS devices are subject to different security requirements.
Option C: PA-DSS-listed software does not automatically meet SSF standards without reassessment.
