Hi,

I am not sure where can I ask this questions directly. If it does not belong here please help me where should I post it. My question is, that if ADABAS comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard? And as such can be used for such applications?

Have you tried the vendor's website or asked your security people or you in-house Adabas support?
Generally, it is not the database security that is the be-all-and-end-all of security but the software nevironment around it - security software e.g. racf, firewalls, coding standards, employee vetting etc.

ADABAS is used with PCI-compliant applications, so the underlying data base itself is compliant. However, the application may -- or may not -- be compliant depending on the various details.
