In PCI DSS 4.0, key management is no longer merely a checkbox activity. Instead, it is a continuous, risk-driven process. Regulating cryptographic key rotation is one of the most critical requirements for limiting the impact of key compromise, supporting crypto-agility, and strengthening overall security.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The purpose of this blog is to explain what PCI DSS 4.0 expects and why key rotation is important.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What PCI DSS 4.0 Says About Key Rotation<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The PCI <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.webnersolutions.com\/secure-apache-webserver\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Security<\/a> Standards Council oversees the implementation of the PCI Data Security Standard.
