PCI Compliance
Contents
hostek.com
PCI compliance requires quarterly scans from a PCI compliance vendor. Hostek.com goes above and beyond this requirement by having regular scans from two different PCI compliance vendors. One vendor's scans are done quarterly. The other's scans are done nightly. This ensures that all potential PCI compliance issues are accurately identified and dealt with promptly.
Datacenter
The data center where the hostek.com equipment is housed maintains SSAE 16 Certification (audit report). This replaced the SAS 70 Type 2 Certification.

If you are on a shared server, please open a support ticket and attach the PCI scan report.
For VPS's: This generally applies to a Windows based server. If you see one of these items on your PCI scan report, download this zip [1] and extract the appropriate .reg file and put that on your VPS and double click it to make the appropriate registry change to fix the issue. Generally if one of these show on your report, we suggest running all three .reg files to fully take care of the issue at one time.
NOTE: You will need to reboot the server for these changes to take affect.
