Bonus points for finding a standard that provides enough *actual* security that it is worth doing, but yet won't bankrupt the industry. Consider that of all the credit-card breaches we've seen so far this century, something outrageous like 97% of the victim companies had current audits that listed them as being 100% PCI compliant at the time of the incident. So how do you do it so it actually adds security, rather than just being a huge government-mandate money transfer to the auditing/certification groups involved?
