PCI Compliance

We successfully led a PCI compliance initiative alongside a network infrastructure overhaul—ensuring sensitive data remained protected and aligned with industry standards.

Key initiatives included:

• Engaging an IBM expert to support PCI compliance efforts

• Leading technical sessions and creating network diagrams to meet compliance requirements

• Developing data security policies to align teams with regulatory expectations

• Establishing a clear project governance structure with defined roles and responsibilities

• Proactively managing risks and preventing scope creep

We worked closely with stakeholders to align budgets, define requirements, and evaluate cost-benefit outcomes. Change control was handled with discipline, supported by regular communication to ensure full transparency.

Using MS Project 2010, we developed work breakdown structures, managed scheduling, and tracked budgets with clarity and precision. Monthly vendor invoice checks were conducted to validate payment accuracy and contract adherence, with updates provided to executive leadership and board-level stakeholders.

The result: A streamlined, well-governed security project that met PCI compliance goals while reinforcing long-term data protection standards.
