About this file
This file is a Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Self-Assessment Questionnaire D document completed by Washington State University (WSU) working with SecurityMetrics, Inc. as their Qualified Security Assessor (QSA). The document details WSU's PCI DSS compliance assessment across multiple payment processing environments including e-commerce, card-present point of sale (POS), analog terminals, cellular terminals, and P2PE-validated payment solutions. The assessment covers WSU's main campus in Pullman as well as campuses in Vancouver, Spokane, and Tri-Cities.
WSU maintains various payment environments including SAQ A, SAQ B, SAQ B-IP, and SAQ P2PE merchant types, with all e-commerce payment channels outsourced to PCI DSS-compliant third-party providers like Touchnet, CyberSource, and The CBORD Group. The university uses multiple payment solutions including Bluefin P2PE, Commerce Platform P2PE, Clover, and Worldpay NA P2PE, along with various PTS-approved payment terminals. WSU does not store any cardholder data, and the assessment confirms their security controls and compliance measures across all requirements in the SAQ D questionnaire, which is designed for merchants that don't meet the criteria for other SAQ types.

Completing the Self-Assessment Questionnaire
Merchant Eligibility Criteria for Self-Assessment Questionnaire D Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) D for Merchants applies to merchants that are eligible to complete a self-assessment questionnaire but do not meet the criteria for any other SAQ type. Examples of merchant environments to which SAQ D may apply include but are not limited to:
§ E-commerce merchants that accept account data on their website.
§ Merchants with electronic storage of account data.
§ Merchants that don’t store account data electronically but that do not meet the criteria of another SAQ type.
§ Merchants with environments that might meet the criteria of another SAQ type, but that have additional PCI DSS requirements applicable to their environment.
This SAQ is not applicable to service providers.
Defining Account Data, Cardholder Data, and Sensitive Authentication Data
PCI DSS is intended for all entities that store, process, or transmit cardholder data (CHD) and/or sensitive authentication data (SAD) or could impact the security of the cardholder data environment (CDE).
Cardholder data and sensitive authentication data are considered account data and are defined as follows:
Account Data
Cardholder Data includes: Sensitive Authentication Data includes:
• Primary Account Number (PAN)
• Cardholder Name
• Expiration Date
• Service Code
• Full track data (magnetic-stripe data or equivalent on a chip)
• Card verification code
• PINs/PIN blocks
Refer to PCI DSS Section 2, PCI DSS Applicability Information, for further details.

PCI DSS Self-Assessment Completion Steps
1. Confirm by review of the eligibility criteria in this SAQ and the Self-Assessment Questionnaire Instructions and Guidelines document on PCI SSC website that this is the correct SAQ for the merchant’s environment.
2. Confirm that the merchant environment is properly scoped.
3. Assess environment for compliance with PCI DSS requirements.
4. Complete all sections of this document:
• Section 1: Assessment Information (Parts 1 & 2 of the Attestation of Compliance (AOC) – Contact Information and Executive Summary).
• Section 2: Self-Assessment Questionnaire D for Merchants.
• Section 3: Validation and Attestation Details (Parts 3 & 4 of the AOC – PCI DSS Validation and Action Plan for Non-Compliant Requirements (if Part 4 is applicable)).
5. Submit the SAQ and AOC, along with any other requested documentation—such as ASV scan reports—to the requesting organization (those organizations that manage compliance programs such as payment brands and acquirers).
Expected Testing
The instructions provided in the “Expected Testing” column are based on the testing procedures in PCI DSS and provide a high-level description of the types of testing activities that a merchant is expected to perform to verify that a requirement has been met.
The intent behind each testing method is described as follows:
§ Examine: The merchant critically evaluates data evidence. Common examples include documents (electronic or physical), screenshots, configuration files, audit logs, and data files.
§ Observe: The merchant watches an action or views something in the environment. Examples of observation subjects include personnel performing a task or process, system components performing a function or responding to input, environmental conditions, and physical controls.
§ Interview: The merchant converses with individual personnel. Interview objectives may include confirmation of whether an activity is performed, descriptions of how an activity is performed, and whether personnel have particular knowledge or understanding.
The testing methods are intended to allow the merchant to demonstrate how it has met a requirement.
The specific items to be examined or observed and personnel to be interviewed should be appropriate for both the requirement being assessed and the merchant’s particular implementation.
Full details of testing procedures for each requirement can be found in PCI DSS.

Requirement Responses
For each requirement item, there is a choice of responses to indicate the merchant’s status regarding that requirement. Only one response should be selected for each requirement item.
A description of the meaning for each response is provided in the table below:
Response When to use this response:
In Place The expected testing has been performed, and all elements of the requirement have been met as stated.
In Place with CCW
(Compensating Controls Worksheet)
The expected testing has been performed, and the requirement has been met with the assistance of a compensating control.
All responses in this column require completion of a Compensating Controls Worksheet (CCW) in Appendix B of this SAQ.
Information on the use of compensating controls and guidance on how to complete the worksheet is provided in PCI DSS Appendices B and C.
Not Applicable The requirement does not apply to the merchant’s environment. (See “Guidance for Not Applicable Requirements” below for examples.)
All responses in this column require a supporting explanation in Appendix C of this
SAQ.
Not Tested The requirement was not included for consideration in the assessment and was not tested in any way. (See “Understanding the Difference between Not Applicable and Not Tested” below for examples of when this option should be used.)
All responses in this column require a supporting explanation in Appendix D of this
SAQ.
Not in Place Some or all elements of the requirement have not been met, or are in the process of being implemented, or require further testing before the merchant can confirm they are in place. Responses in this column may require the completion of Part 4, if requested by the entity to which this SAQ will be submitted.
This response is also used if a requirement cannot be met due to a legal restriction.
(See “Legal Exception” below for more guidance).

Guidance for Not Applicable Requirements While many merchants completing SAQ D will need to validate compliance with every PCI DSS requirement, some entities with very specific business models may find that some requirements do not apply. For example, entities that do not use wireless technology in any capacity are not expected to comply with the PCI DSS requirements that are specific to managing wireless technology. Similarly, entities that do not store any account data electronically at any time are not expected to comply with the PCI DSS requirements related to secure storage of account data (for example, Requirement 3.5.1).
Another example is requirements specific to application development and secure coding (for example, Requirements 6.2.1 through 6.2.4), which only apply to an entity with bespoke software (developed for the entity by a third party per the entity’s specifications) or custom software (developed by the entity for its own use).
For each response where Not Applicable is selected in this SAQ, complete Appendix C: Explanation of Requirements Noted as Not Applicable.
Understanding the Difference between Not Applicable and Not Tested Requirements that are deemed to be not applicable to an environment must be verified as such. Using the wireless example above, for a merchant to select “Not Applicable” for Requirements 1.3.3, 2.3.1, 2.3.2, and 4.2.1.2, the merchant first needs to confirm that there are no wireless technologies used in its cardholder data environment (CDE) or that connect to their CDE. Once this has been confirmed, the merchant may select “Not Applicable” for those specific requirements.
If a requirement is completely excluded from review without any consideration as to whether it could apply, the “Not Tested” option should be selected. Examples of situations where this could occur may include:
§ A merchant is asked by their acquirer to validate a subset of requirements—for example, using the PCI DSS Prioritized Approach to validate only certain milestones.
§ A merchant is confirming a new security control that impacts only a subset of requirements—for example, implementation of a new encryption methodology that only requires assessment of PCI DSS Requirements 2, 3, and 4.
In these scenarios, the merchant’s assessment only includes certain PCI DSS requirements even though other requirements might also apply to its environment.
If any requirements are completely excluded from the merchant’s self-assessment, select Not Tested for that specific requirement, and complete Appendix D: Explanation of Requirements Not Tested for each “Not Tested” entry. An assessment with any Not Tested responses is a “Partial” PCI DSS assessment and will be noted as such by the merchant in the Attestation of Compliance in Section 3, Part 3 of this
SAQ.

Guidance for Responding to Future Dated Requirements In Section 2 below, each new PCI DSS v4.0 requirement or bullet with an extended implementation period includes the following note: “This requirement [or bullet] is a best practice until 31 March 2025, after which it will be required and must be fully considered during a PCI DSS assessment.”
These new requirements are not required to be included in a PCI DSS assessment until the future date has passed. Prior to that future date, any new requirements with an extended implementation date that have not been implemented by the merchant may be marked as Not Applicable and documented in Appendix C: Explanation of Requirements Noted as Not Applicable.
Legal Exception If your organization is subject to a legal restriction that prevents the organization from meeting a PCI DSS requirement, select Not in Place for that requirement and complete the relevant attestation in Section 3, Part 3 of this SAQ.
Note: A legal restriction is one where meeting the PCI DSS requirement would violate a local or regional law or regulation.
Contractual obligations or legal advice are not legal restrictions.
Use of the Customized Approach
SAQs cannot be used to document use of the Customized Approach to meet PCI DSS requirements. For this reason, the Customized Approach Objectives are not included in SAQs. Entities wishing to validate using the Customized Approach may be able to use the PCI DSS Report on Compliance (ROC) Template to document the results of their assessment.
The use of the customized approach may be regulated by organizations that manage compliance programs, such as payment brands and acquirers. Questions about use of a customized approach should always be referred to those organizations. This includes whether an entity that is eligible for an SAQ may instead complete a ROC to use a customized approach, and whether an entity is required to use a QSA, or may use an ISA, to complete an assessment using the customized approach. Information about the use of the Customized Approach can be found in Appendices D and E of PCI DSS.
Use of the Customized Approach is not supported in SAQs.

• Examine documented procedures.
• Examine documentation from reviews performed.
1.2.8 Configuration files for NSCs are:
• Secured from unauthorized access.
• Kept consistent with active network configurations.
• Examine NSC configuration files.
Applicability Notes
Any file or setting used to configure or synchronize NSCs is considered to be a “configuration file.”
This includes files, automated and system-based controls, scripts, settings, infrastructure as code, or other parameters that are backed up, archived, or stored remotely.
1.3 Network access to and from the cardholder data environment is restricted.
1.3.1 Inbound traffic to the CDE is restricted as follows:

1.4.2 Inbound traffic from untrusted networks to trusted
networks is restricted to:
• Communications with system components that are authorized to provide publicly accessible services, protocols, and ports.
• Stateful responses to communications initiated by system components in a trusted network.
• All other traffic is denied.
• Examine NSC documentation.
The intent of this requirement is to address communication sessions between trusted and untrusted networks, rather than the specifics of protocols.
This requirement does not limit the use of UDP or other connectionless network protocols if state is maintained by the NSC.
1.4.3 Anti-spoofing measures are implemented to detect and
block forged source IP addresses from entering the trusted network.
• Examine NSC documentation.
1.4.4 System components that store cardholder data are not
directly accessible from untrusted networks.
• Examine the data-flow diagram and network diagram.
This requirement is not intended to apply to storage of account data in volatile memory but does apply where memory is being treated as persistent storage (for example, RAM disk). Account data can only be stored in volatile memory during the time necessary to support the associated business process (for example, until completion of the related payment card transaction).
1.4.5 The disclosure of internal IP addresses and routing
information is limited to only authorized parties.
• Examine NSC configurations.

1.5 Risks to the CDE from computing devices that are able to connect to both untrusted networks and the CDE are mitigated.
1.5.1 Security controls are implemented on any computing
devices, including company- and employee-owned devices, that connect to both untrusted networks (including the Internet) and the CDE as follows.
• Specific configuration settings are defined to prevent threats being introduced into the entity’s network.
• Security controls are actively running.
• Security controls are not alterable by users of the computing devices unless specifically documented and authorized by management on a case-by-case basis for a limited period.
• Examine policies and configuration standards.
• Examine device configuration settings.
These security controls may be temporarily disabled only if there is legitimate technical need, as authorized by management on a case-by-case basis. If these security controls need to be disabled for a specific purpose, it must be formally authorized. Additional security measures may also need to be implemented for the period during which these security controls are not active.
This requirement applies to employee-owned and company-owned computing devices. Systems that cannot be managed by corporate policy introduce weaknesses and provide opportunities that malicious individuals may exploit.

3.2 Storage of account data is kept to a minimum.
3.2.1 Account data storage is kept to a minimum through
implementation of data retention and disposal policies, procedures, and processes that include at least the following:
• Coverage for all locations of stored account data.
• Coverage for any sensitive authentication data (SAD) stored prior to completion of authorization. This bullet is a best practice until its effective date; refer to Applicability Notes below for details.
• Limiting data storage amount and retention time to that which is required for legal or regulatory, and/or business requirements.
• Specific retention requirements for stored account data that defines length of retention period and includes a documented business justification.
• Processes for secure deletion or rendering account data unrecoverable when no longer needed per the retention policy.
• A process for verifying, at least once every three months, that stored account data exceeding the defined retention period has been securely deleted or rendered unrecoverable.
• Examine the data retention and disposal policies, procedures, and processes.
• Interview personnel.
• Examine files and system records on system components where account data is stored.
• Observe the mechanisms used to render account data unrecoverable.
Where account data is stored by a TPSP (for example, in a cloud environment), entities are responsible for working with their service providers to understand how the TPSP meets this requirement for the entity. Considerations include ensuring that all geographic instances of a data element are securely deleted.
The bullet above (for coverage of SAD stored prior to completion of authorization) is a best practice until 31 March 2025, after which it will be required as part of Requirement 3.2.1 and must be fully considered during a PCI DSS assessment.

3.3 Sensitive authentication data (SAD) is not stored after authorization.
3.3.1 SAD is not retained after authorization, even if
encrypted. All sensitive authentication data received is rendered unrecoverable upon completion of the authorization process.
• Examine documented policies and procedures.
• Examine system configurations.
• Observe the secure data deletion processes.
Part of this Applicability Note was intentionally removed for this SAQ as it does not apply to merchant assessments.
Sensitive authentication data includes the data cited in Requirements 3.3.1.1 through 3.3.1.3.
3.3.1.1 The full contents of any track are not retained upon
completion of the authorization process.
• Examine data sources.
Applicability Notes
In the normal course of business, the following data elements from the track may need to be retained:
• Cardholder name.
• Primary account number (PAN).
• Expiration date.
• Service code.
To minimize risk, store securely only these data elements as needed for business.
3.3.1.2 The card verification code is not retained upon
completion of the authorization process.
• Examine data sources.
Applicability Notes
The card verification code is the three- or four-digit number printed on the front or back of a payment card used to verify card-not-present transactions.
3.3.1.3 The personal identification number (PIN) and the PIN
block are not retained upon completion of the authorization process.
• Examine data sources.

Applicability Notes
PIN blocks are encrypted during the natural course of transaction processes, but even if an entity encrypts the PIN block again, it is still not allowed to be stored after the completion of the authorization process.
3.3.2 SAD that is stored electronically prior to completion of authorization is encrypted using strong cryptography.
• Examine data stores and system configurations.
Whether SAD is permitted to be stored prior to authorization is determined by the organizations that manage compliance programs (for example, payment brands and acquirers). Contact the organizations of interest for any additional criteria.
This requirement applies to all storage of SAD, even if no PAN is present in the environment.
Refer to Requirement 3.2.1 for an additional requirement that applies if SAD is stored prior to completion of authorization.
Part of this Applicability Note was intentionally removed for this SAQ as it does not apply to merchant assessments.
This requirement does not replace how PIN blocks are required to be managed, nor does it mean that a properly encrypted PIN block needs to be encrypted again.
This requirement is a best practice until 31 March 2025, after which it will be required and must be fully considered during a PCI DSS assessment.

3.4 Access to displays of full PAN and ability to copy PAN is restricted.
3.4.1 PAN is masked when displayed (the BIN and last four
digits are the maximum number of digits to be displayed), such that only personnel with a legitimate business need can see more than the BIN and last four digits of the PAN.
• Examine documented policies and procedures.
• Examine system configurations.
• Examine the documented list of roles that need access to more than the BIN and last four digits of the PAN (includes full PAN).
• Examine displays of PAN (for example, on screen, on paper receipts).
This requirement does not supersede stricter requirements in place for displays of cardholder data—for example, legal or payment brand requirements for point-of-sale (POS) receipts.
