Payment Security by Design with PCI P2PE
The ITSM Practice: Elevating ITSM and IT Security KnowledgeShow Notes
In this episode of The ITSM Practice Podcast, Luigi Ferri explains why PCI P2PE is not just encryption but a security-by-design discipline. Learn how point-to-point encryption eliminates clear-text card data, reduces breach impact, simplifies PCI compliance, and integrates with ITIL governance to protect trust from the first millisecond of payment.
In this episode, we answer to: What is PCI P2PE and why is it critical for modern payment security and PCI DSS compliance? How does P2PE reduce breach exposure and change merchant compliance obligations? Why are governance, the PIM, and ITIL practices essential to keeping P2PE effective over time?

Does your SOC really protect the entire business, or does its visibility stop at the firewall? In this episode of The ITSM Practice Podcast, Luigi Ferri explores drone threats against data centers and what they reveal about gaps between Cybersecurity, Physical Security, Facilities, IT Operations and Business Continuity. Discover why CISOs need to rethink the traditional cyber attack surface and focus on protecting the complete service.
AI that summarizes an incident is one thing. AI that disables accounts, isolates endpoints and blocks connections is another. In this episode of The ITSM Practice Podcast, Luigi Ferri explains the ITIL 5 6C Model for AI and why CIOs, CISOs and MSPs need to stop asking, “Are we using AI?” and start asking, “What are we allowing AI to do?”
A critical vulnerability is not automatically a critical business risk. If your CMDB only tells you which server is affected but not the customer, service, contract, SLA, or revenue behind it, you are missing the information that matters. This episode explains why CISOs need a business-aware CMDB to connect technical risk with real business impact.
