September 30 (why’d they pick a Sunday?) marks the compliance date for Level 1 organizations to be in compliance with PCI DSS.

4 Drivers For PCI DSS Compliance
Friday, September 28th, 2007SMB PCI DSS Issues at the State Fair
Thursday, August 16th, 2007Yesterday I was at the Iowa State Fair literally all day; from 8am to around 8:30pm. Despite the 95 degree extremely humid weather it was such a fun day!

And I was *VERY* disappointed I didn’t see any of the at least 4 presidential hopefuls who were on the grounds; the place is so big I guess we were always in the wrong place at the right time.

I was thinking about some of the issues over the weekend.
