Abstract
The assignment for unit five is twofold. The first part of the assignment will deal with a Point of Sale (POS) transaction and its aftermath. The goal of this first part is to determine if the events in the described scenario are Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant. The second part of the assignment also covers PCI as it pertains to HGA's Network. The goal of this second part is to answer four questions and determine if HGA's network is already compliant or what can be done to make it compliant.
