Below are a few excerpts from the article, "10 PCI Compliance Best Practices to Protect Your Business and Customers."

1. Use Firewalls

"Firewalls form the first line of defense for your network and all devices connected to the network. Make sure to maintain those firewalls, applying software updates as soon as they become available."

2. Change Default Passwords

"Many devices critical to your system, including routers and point of sale (POS) systems, come installed with default passwords. Always replace the defaults with strong passwords. Hackers know the defaults and have used them successfully overand over again to gain access."
