Misr Digital Innovation has successfully attains PCI DSS Certification

Misr Digital Innovation (MDI), a subsidiary of Banque Misr and the company responsible for building Egypt's first digital bank, is proud to announce that it has successfully attained the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Certification in collaboration with IGRC SQUARE, an accredited Qualified Security Assessor (QSA).

This achievement not only establishes MDI as a globally recognized entity by obtaining the PCI DSS certification, but also makes it the first in the market to be certified under the latest version, v4.0.1. This version offers enhanced flexibility, clearer requirements, and a stronger focus on security, risk management, and monitoring, aligning with modern cybersecurity practices and promoting a proactive, risk-based approach to data protection.

The PCI DSS outlines stringent security requirements to protect environments where cardholder data (CHD) is stored, processed, or transmitted. It serves as a benchmark of technical and operational standards designed to safeguard payment account data. This certification enhances MDI's cybersecurity stance and reinforces customer trust by ensuring the highest level of data protection.
