What do you mean how people work with it? PCI DSS is a standard and has a bunch on controls in it that companies have to have in place im order to be compliant, so this is more of a compliance issue with IT/Infosec being the implementators. For example, one of the controls says that you need to have a firewall in place and have it configured properly etcetera. So IT puts a firewall in place and the Firewall engineer sets it up in such a way that it is compliant with what the standard is requesting. Theres 12 controls in the standard i think.

I don't work with it, but I'm pretty sure PCI-DSS has a SAQ your business fills out. The one your business needs depends on how the business handles credit cards. I'd imagine just going through the checklist and doing the things required would be working with it.

its just i see it listed in various info sec job specs "demonstrable evidence of working on PCI DSS and ISO 27001" but i hear you when you say its mainly just standards etc. Will take a look at the 12 controls.
