PCI-DSS Oriented DevSecOps: Building Compliant Payment Workflows in Cloud-Native Systems

Abstract

Author(s): Hannah Martinez, Priya Ahmed, Omar Li, Chen Sato. This study explores pci-dss oriented devsecops: building compliant payment workflows in cloud-native systems with a focus on practical engineering trade-offs in modern cloud-native environments. We present an implementation-driven methodology, reference architectures, and evaluation criteria that teams can adopt in compliance engineering programs. Results highlight measurable improvements in reliability, security posture, and end-user performance when the proposed practices are applied.
