Background on the PCI Secure SLC Standard 

The PCI Secure SLC Standard is one of two standards that are part of the PCI Software Security Framework (SSF). It provides security requirements and assessment procedures for software vendors to integrate into their software development lifecycles and to validate that secure lifecycle management practices are in place. The Secure SLC Standard (v1.0) was originally published in January 2019 with a minor revision (v1.1) published in February 2021 to address errata and to expand program eligibility. No other updates have been published, or RFCs performed, since the initial v1.0 publication. The results of the RFC will be used to determine the scope of potential updates to the Secure SLC Standard for a future revision.
