Written by Louis Isabella | Jan 27, 2026 4:00:02 PM

Youngstown, OH – CBOSS, a payment gateway, today announced that it has completed its PCI audit and received a Report on Compliance, performed by KirkpatrickPrice. This report verifies that CBOSS adheres to the Payment Card Industry Security Data Standard (PCI DSS) and has the proper internal controls and processes in place to deliver high quality services to its clients.

A PCI audit is a rigorous assessment against the PCI DSS, a complex security standard developed by payment card brands to enhanced cardholder data security. The PCI DSS is made up of over 400 controls that focus on security management, policies and procedures, network architecture, software design, and other critical protective measures. Compliance with the PCI DSS is mandatory for any merchant or service provider that uses, stores, or transmits cardholder data. In accordance with the PCI Security Standards Council, KirkpatrickPrice’s Qualified Security Assessors performed the assessment for CBOSS to become PCI compliant.

“Our partnership with KirkpatrickPrice has been instrumental in our efforts of security and compliance; crossing over multiple frameworks,” said Douglas Carr, Director of Technology with CBOSS. “As a result, CBOSS is able to more effectively manage security and compliance and to deliver on our promise of securing our client’s data as part of our online payment service offering.”

“Many of CBOSS’ clients rely on their systems to process or store sensitive data and protect information,” said Joseph Kirkpatrick, President of KirkpatrickPrice. “As a result, CBOSS has implemented best practice controls demanded by their customers to address information security and compliance risks. Our third-party opinion validates these controls and the tests we perform provide assurance to CBOSS’ clients.”
