Enable Token Protection for PCI DSS Compliance
Learn how CA-10 helps you meet PCI DSS requirements for Microsoft 365 and Entra ID security.
Organizations pursuing PCI DSS compliance need to address enable token protection as part of their security program. The CA-10 control maps directly to PCI DSS requirements, helping demonstrate compliance while strengthening your security posture.
How CA-10 Addresses PCI DSS Requirements
PCI DSS requires organizations to implement controls around enable token protection. The CA-10 control provides:
- Token binding is enabled for sensitive applications
- Refresh token protection is configured
- Sign-in frequency controls complement token protection
These measures directly support PCI DSS compliance by ensuring proper conditional_access security in your Microsoft 365 environment.
Implementation for Compliance
To satisfy PCI DSS requirements with this control:
- **Enable the control** - Use TrueConfig's one-click remediation
- **Document your implementation** - Record how the control was configured
- **Maintain evidence** - TrueConfig automatically logs compliance status
- **Monitor continuously** - Track any deviations from the expected state
Evidence Collection
For PCI DSS audits, you'll need to demonstrate:
- Current configuration state
- Historical compliance data
- Remediation actions taken
- Continuous monitoring in place
TrueConfig provides all of this evidence through its audit trail and reporting features.
Why This Control Matters for PCI DSS
Stolen tokens can be replayed from any device or location. Token protection binds tokens to specific devices, making stolen tokens useless. This is the primary defense against token theft attacks.
Implementing CA-10 is an important step toward PCI DSS compliance. Combined with TrueConfig's continuous monitoring, you can demonstrate ongoing adherence to PCI DSS requirements.
