What is not public
- The Visa registry lists the assessor and the date the validation runs through, not the services in scope of the attestation of compliance.
What PCI DSS means, and what it does not
Only a registry listing (Visa Global Registry, Mastercard SDP) or an AOC letter is strong evidence. In the Visa registry only rows validated as PCI DSS with a validation date count; Third Party Agent registrations are not PCI evidence.
