4. Do you know when the router and the terminals were last updated?
5. Does anyone connect to the register or the network from outside the shop (vendor, owner from home, remote support)?
6. Does every staff member share one login or one WiFi password?
7. Do you check the card terminals for tampering or swapped devices, and keep a list of them?
8. Do you have written policies and a short yearly staff briefing on handling card payments?
9. Do you know which Self-Assessment Questionnaire your processor requires, and who at your business signs it?
10. Has your processor charged you a "PCI non-compliance" or "non-validation" fee in the last year?
