Yes, I am aware of all those requirements. Because of the way it is set up, AWS provides compliance for many of those factors, and they have several AMIs that meet the requirements of PCI DDS compliance in their respective factors. Of course SSL gateways and no remote access are some of the things that the administrator will have to implement. As I have been looking over the requirements of PCI DDS compliance, I just thought I'd ask the group if anyone has good information or documentation about how to program a shopping cart that will be compliant in PHP. So letting alone all the other factors that apply, I'm just asking about that which applies to php.
I know of a company that provides a PHP shopping cart that is PCI DDS compliant for $500+ depending on how many items are being sold, and they give a training course on how to deploy and configure it for $2500. If I go that route, then I am free to sell that shopping cart to anyone I desire. Nevertheless, it seems to me that it may be worth my while to learn how to program and configure one myself.
