Payment Card Industry (PCI) guidelines emphasize safeguarding account data so unauthorized parties cannot read it. Obfuscating sensitive fields ensures the information cannot be easily interpreted. While layered user verification controls sign-ins, data in plain view remains vulnerable during storage. Protecting traffic without obscuring records leaves stored data at risk. Reserving dedicated infrastructure does not guarantee field-level protection.
