Mandatory ROC Template

PCI DSS v4.0 mandates the use of the PCI SSC-provided ROC Template for all Reports on Compliance​​.

This ensures standardization, completeness, and accuracy in documenting compliance assessments.

Sections of the ROC Template

The ROC includes mandatory sections:

Assessment Overview:General details, scope validation, and assessment findings.

Findings and Observations:Detailed compliance status per requirement.

Prohibited Practices

Assessors cannot use self-created ROC templates. Deviation from the PCI SSC-approved template may result in rejection of the report​​.

Key Changes in v4.0

Added support for the customized approach within the ROC structure​​.

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​​.

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.
