How Lavawall® helps you get to PCI DSS SAQ A compliance
Most of PCI DSS SAQ A comes down to technical controls you have to run and prove: keeping systems patched, hardening configuration, detecting breaches early, backing up what matters, controlling access, and keeping evidence that all of it actually happened. Lavawall® runs those controls across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace from one console, maps them to PCI DSS SAQ A, and tracks your posture continuously instead of once a year at audit time.
- Assess your current state against PCI DSS SAQ A in the Lavawall GRC module, with the questionnaire and control set built in.
- Remediate the gaps with the same platform — automated patching, configuration fixes, backups, and access review — not a separate project.
- Evidence everything with timestamped, exportable records auditors, insurers, and clients accept.
