Which statement about the Attestation of Compliance (AOC) is correct?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Attestation of Compliance (AOC):

The AOC is a document that confirms an entity's compliance with PCI DSS requirements. It is signed by the entity (merchant or service provider) and the Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) if a QSA is involved.

Different AOC Templates:

PCI DSS provides distinct templates for service providers and merchants, tailored to their respective roles and responsibilities within the cardholder data environment (CDE).

Invalid Options:

B: PCI SSC does not sign AOCs; they are signed by the merchant/service provider and the QSA.

C: AOCs differ between ROCs and SAQs, so the same template is not universally used.

D: Both the merchant/service provider and the QSA/ISA (Internal Security Assessor) must sign the AOC when applicable.

Haha, the PCI SSC probably has a template for 'The AOC Must Be Signed in Triplicate by the CEO, CFO, and the Family Dog' just to make things more complicated.

I thought the AOC had to be signed by both the merchant/service provider and the PCI SSC? This is getting confusing!

I agree with Hester, because the AOC is a document that confirms compliance with PCI DSS and it makes sense that it needs to be signed by the merchant/service provider or the QSA/ISA.

D) makes the most sense to me. The AOC can be signed by either the merchant/service provider or the QSA/ISA, not both.
