According to the PCI CPSA Qualification Requirements, one of the administrative requirements for CPSA Companies is to notify the VPA of any changes to the roles of CPSA Employees or other personnel that directly affect the security of card products and related components. This is to ensure that the CPSA Company maintains the quality and integrity of the CPSA Program and the PCI Card Production Security Standards. The VPA should be notified within 10 business days of the change, and the CPSA Company should provide evidence of the qualifications and training of theaffected personnel. References: PCI CPSA Qualification Requirements, Version 1.1, April 2020, Section 6.1.3, Page 121

 According to the PCI Card Production Physical Security Requirements, one of the objectives of physical security is to deter, detect, and delay unauthorized access to card production facilities and equipment. This objective requires that the facility has adequate security measures to prevent or respond to any physical attacks or intrusions, such as alarms, locks, cameras, guards, etc. However, these measures may not be sufficient if the facility is located in a rural area, where law enforcement services may not be able to reach the facility in a timely manner in case of an emergency. Therefore, the location of the facility may pose a risk to the security of card production and provisioning activities, and the CPSA should assess the adequacy of the facility’s security plan and procedures to mitigate this risk. References: PCI Card Production Physical Security Requirements, Version 1.0, April 2019, Section 1.1, Objective 1, Page 41

 According to the PCI Card Production and Provisioning Physical Security Requirements, the vendor must use magnetic contacts that are permanently alarmed and that are connected to the security control-room panels to protect doors that provide access to buildings containing air conditioning equipment. The vendor must also ensure that the air conditioning equipment is located in a secure area that is not accessible to unauthorized personnel, and that the air conditioning system is monitored and maintained to prevent unauthorized access or tampering. The vendor must also have procedures to respond to any alarms or incidents related to the air conditioning system, and to report them to the relevant parties. The vendor must not use security tape, electrical contacts, or physical locks alone, as these may not provide adequate protection or detection of unauthorized access or tampering. References: PCI Card Production and Provisioning Physical Security Requirements and Test Procedures v3.0, January 2022, pages 21-221

The assessor is the person who conducts the PCI Card Production Security Assessment and prepares the Card Production Report on Compliance (ROC) and the Card Production Attestation of Compliance (AOC). The assessor should be familiar with the forms that are needed to complete an assessment and provide guidance to the vendor on how to fill them out. The assessor should also ensure that the forms are consistent with the PCI Card Production Standards and the PCI CPSA Qualification Requirements. The other options are not the best sources of information for the vendor, as they may not be directly involved in the assessment process or have the expertise to advise on the forms. References:

According to the PCI Card Production and Provisioning Physical Security Requirements, the vendor must have a secure inner shipping delivery room that is equipped with an alarm system and an access-control system. The alarm system must be triggered when any door of the inner shipping delivery room is opened without proper authorization. The access-control system must only allow the opening of the last activated door to liberate a person detected inside of the inner shipping delivery room and stop the alarm. This is to prevent unauthorized access or exit from the inner shipping delivery room, and to ensure that only one door can be opened at a time. References: PCI Card Production and Provisioning Physical Security Requirements and Test Procedures v3.0, January 2022, pages 18-191
