Kimon's organization suffered a breach of customer credit card records. Under the terms of PCI DSS, what organization may choose to pursue an investigation of this matter?

Answer Options

A

FBI

B

Local law enforcement

C

Bank

D

PCI SSC

Correct Answer: C

Explanation

PCI DSS is a standard promulgated by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) but is enforced through contractual relationships between merchants and their banks. Therefore, the bank would be the appropriate entity to initiate an investigation under PCI DSS. Local and federal law enforcement agencies (such as the FBI) could decide to pursue a criminal investigation if the circumstances warrant it, but they do not have the authority to enforce PCI DSS requirements.
