Managed ASV Scanning Services

ASV scans are an essential security tool. Regular ASV scans are required for most organisations under PCI DSS.

Stratica offers transparent, fully managed ASV scanning at an affordable cost – with flexible payment options available. We’ll work with you to help you achieve a pass and ensure your organisation’s ongoing security.

We run ASV scans monthly, so we can close any vulnerabilities and ensure you get a pass at least every quarter – in line with PCI DSS requirements.

Our Process

We conduct the ASV scans on your behalf through our StraticaOne ASV scanning portal. We’ll then work with you to help you understand the results and prioritise any remediation activities required to achieve a pass.

You’ll have access to the portal at all times, so you can view your results or share them with stakeholders.

FAQs

What is an ASV Scan?

An ASV scan is an external vulnerability assessment for organisations that handle payment card data. Its results are used to demonstrate compliance with the external vulnerability scanning requirements of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).

Who needs an ASV scan?

All Organisations that accept payment cards must perform ASV scans when they have internet-facing systems that handle or could affect the security of cardholder data. This includes merchants that outsource all aspects of card payments to a third party provider.

How often should I do an ASV scan?

You must conduct an ASV Scan quarterly (every 90 days).

If you make significant changes to your network, such as installing a new server or upgrading software or systems that handle cardholder data, you must conduct an ASV Scan – even if it’s been less than 90 days since your last one.

What gets scanned in an ASV scan?

ASV scans focus on:

External-facing IP addresses
Domains associated with your e-commerce environment
Systems that could impact the security of payment transactions
Web applications that facilitate payment processing
