PCI (Payment Card Industry Security Standard)

Identify and authenticate access to system components

Req 8.1.5

8.1.5 Manage IDs used by third parties to access support or maintain system components via remote access as follows: – Enabled only during the time period needed and disabled when not in use. – Monitored when in use.
