Danal Earns Top-Level PCI-DSS v4.0.1 Certification, Proving Security and Stability

Danal, a company specializing in integrated payment business, announced on February 19 that it has obtained the highest grade, Level 1, of the global payment data security standard PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) v4.0.1, thereby officially recognizing its payment stability and information management capabilities at a global level.

PCI-DSS is an international data standard established by global card companies such as Visa and Mastercard, and is a strict framework that verifies information management systems and operational stability across the entire payment process. The v4.0.1 version obtained by Danal includes more advanced management requirements tailored to the evolving IT environment.

With this certification, Danal has objectively demonstrated that it meets the stringent data management standards required in the global market. In particular, it successfully passed all 464 detailed items, including data encryption, network management, and access control, confirming that it has built an optimal infrastructure to process customers' payment information in the safest and most transparent way.

Accordingly, the company is expected not only to provide a safer payment environment to merchants and users of its core credit card and mobile payment services, but also to enhance the operational stability of new businesses such as K.ONDA, an all-in-one platform exclusively for foreigners, its stablecoin services, and the level of trust with its partners.

Furthermore, as this is a top-tier certification recognized worldwide, Danal is expected to gain an edge in forming additional partnerships and expanding networks with global companies, which will in turn help strengthen its competitiveness in overseas businesses such as cross-border payments and increase total transaction volume.

A Danal official said, "The significance of obtaining the highest PCI-DSS v4.0.1 grade lies in confirming that Danal's payment system fully complies with global standards," adding, "We will prioritize 'trust' and 'stability', the core values of financial and payment services, and focus on building an advanced payment platform that customers can use with confidence."
